George was asked by the CRC Worship Ministries to share a prayer for Ukraine. Please join us in praying for peace.
Heavenly Father, we come to you with heavy hearts as we see war in Ukraine. We pray that you would be merciful on the people of Ukraine and Russia and end this war. Grant wisdom to world leaders to effectively stop evil. Allow for the truth to be known, for lies to be shown for what they are, and for evil-doers to be thwarted.
Lord, we pray for those who have lost loved ones, homes, and livelihoods. Comfort and provide for the needs of those who have been displaced and seek refuge. Lord, we ask for mercy and we seek justice. We pray that you would be at worked in both.
We pray for the day when all wars will cease and when your peaceful reign will come fully. But in the meantime, we pray that you would use us to facilitate the coming of your kingdom here and now. Help us to take action to bring peace, to care for the victims of war, and to work for justice. Help us to live according to the principles of your Kingdom today, and to remain faithful until your Kingdom comes fully at your return. Grant courage to your church in Russia, in Ukraine, and here to speak truth to power and to prophetically proclaim the truths of your Kingdom as well as the day of grace that still remains for those who repent.
Lord, we pray for Vladimir Putin. We pray that you would change his heart and work your miracle of salvation in his life. If he continues in his wicked ways, we pray that you would restrain his evil and have mercy on those who suffer because of it.
In all these things, we trust you, because you are our loving Father. We ask that you would keep us faithful by the power of your Spirit and that you would be with your church in Ukraine – that in times of war it would faithfully follow you and represent you before the nations. Heal the wounds, we pray, both physical and the wounds of the heart. Reconcile the nations with you and with each other by the power of the cross of our reigning Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in whose name we pray. Amen.
Our prayers are with you and the children. May God protect you during this difficult/ stressful time. Prayers for peace in your chosen region of the world. I love the prayer you have given and I will be praying it daily.

Hi Richard,
We are still here in the U.S. Sadly, it is very unclear right now when we might be able to return to Ukraine. At this point we are staying in the U.S. until summer of 2023.
George, Sarah and Family,
Diane and I will be Praying for You and Your Family as you are concerned and Heavy Hearted for so many Friends and Colleagues in the Ukraine. We will continue to raise up the People of Ukraine as well as those throughout the World who are supporting the unprovoked War against Ukraine by Putin. Stay safe and may Our God answer our Prayers for Peace, Swiftly and Decisively.
