VIDEO SCRIPT

Today I’m in Ukraine and I had the opportunity to speak at the National Prayer Breakfast.

Thousands of church volunteers, thousands make this possible. And it would not happen without the body of Christ.

I was able to speak and address many of the leaders and the church leaders here. But to point to Christ.

I saw you when I came in. I saw the uniforms in the back. This message is for you. I want you to know that you’re loved. You’re not forgotten. You’re not forsaken. That God loved you so much that he sent his only son, Jesus Christ, to die on a cross. That you may have everlasting life.

And here we have over 150 Ukrainians that work with Samaritan’s Purse and our office here.

But they work through the local church. And this is where we have thousands of volunteers that make the programing of Samaritan’s Purse possible. That’s feeding, that’s medical work, that’s transportation on various goods and services to the front lines, especially where this area is happening, the war. There’s a lot of water wells being dug, providing clean drinking water for communities there.

And we can’t do it without the staff, but also the church. We also can’t do without your prayers and support. I’m so thankful for the talent that God has brought to Samaritan’s Purse. This office here, it’s leadership and the work they’re doing. I ask that you pray for this country. Pray for our staff here that’s been working so hard, but also for the leaders of this country and the leaders around the world that peace would come to Ukraine.

Thank you.
