This trip was extremely difficult. The Kherson region and the villages of the Mykolaiv region are under constant shelling.
We drove in at night, through Chornobaivka, with explosions happening nearby. The children who were waiting for us were hiding, but as soon as we arrived, they ran out again — like little sparrows. We quickly handed out the gifts, and the night once again swallowed the silence.
The morning began with the sounds of explosions. We traveled through the villages, delivering aid to the soldiers first, and then to the children. In basements that had replaced classrooms, songs, poems, and words of gratitude could be heard. There were tears — but they were tears of joy.
During this trip, we visited 6 villages and gave out 340 Christmas gifts. It was difficult, dangerous, but incredibly meaningful.
There are still many children ahead who are waiting. I believe God will make it possible for us to return again.
All glory to God! 🙏
Thank you to everyone who supports our trips to the Kherson region. ❤️
