Thank you for your partnership in missions!

Read today's Mission Bite from CBF field personnel, Mina Podgaisky

"Throughout our ministry life we have always hosted people in our home. Some came to Bible study, some for personal our couple’s counseling, some to a women’s Bible study group, some to leadership trainings and some to stay for a few days of respite and counseling. When we relocated to Krakow, Poland a year ago, little did we know that our home will become a full-fledged hospitality and debriefing house.

The day after we moved in, we had our first group of four people. Two Americans on their way to Ukraine and two Ukrainians that after a couple of days of sleep and rest, returned to Ukraine. The tempo has only stopped when we were out of the city or for Christmas break. Sometimes we get to host two pastors on the way to other countries in Europe to serve the Ukrainian refugees and to speak in local churches. All our guests share that our “beds are the most comfortable beds and our home the most restful home in the world.” That would be understandable as these Ukrainians have not had a restful night sleep in months and sometimes years. “In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety.” Psalm 4:8"

From a friend in Kyiv:

Urgent prayer requests!!! Viktor’s group is pinned down and unable to be evacuated due to heavy fire. It seems like they’re just waiting until it calms down a bit before sending in vehicles to get them. No one knows when this will be. Please pray!!! Also, pray fervently for another situation. Won’t share here but God knows!
