In the last update, we shared how the Shelter welcomed Karina and her baby. Safe housing is an important step toward a healthy family! But Karina still needed hope for her future and peace in her heart.
DRUZI brought Karina into God’s family.
Because of recurring givers, Karina had a year at the Shelter to hear the good news about Jesus. She encountered His love in daily activities, parenting lessons, and conversations with other youth. She began going to church and brought Evelina to be blessed. Then she decided to follow Jesus! She was baptized this summer.
When you gave to Last Bell, you made a big impact on those in our community affected by war. Most at risk are orphaned youth, who face this difficult time without family support. Young people like Karina need to know God loves them and God’s people will care for them. Will you join DRUZI today in a gesture of love toward Ukraine’s most vulnerable youth and families?
Surrounded by people who follow Jesus, Karina began growing in her faith. But she still couldn’t provide for her daughter. In the next part of the story, find out how a childhood dream helped Karina take the next step!
