Will there be Christmas this year?’ – a question weighing heavily on the hearts of many in Kyiv, Ukraine. Last year, thanks to Steamboat Christian Center and our community, we were able to bring much-needed supplies—winter clothes, medical aid, and even a little taste of freedom with American candy.
But this year, as the war continues, the uncertainty grows. Pastor Tim, who lives in constant danger with his pregnant wife, reflects on the challenges ahead. Even though bombs have touched the city, their hope remains steadfast. The people of Kyiv are resilient, but they need our support now more than ever.
Last August, bombs burst above the ICA building, where Steamboat locals Julie Lewis, Doug and Lisa Renee Tumminello, Gary French, Jon Fenderson and Kirby Maddox were bringing humanitarian aid and funds to support the people of Ukraine. At the time, the aerial assault was the largest drone strike of the Russia/Ukraine war.
In Steamboat, we’re fortunate to live in a place that values generosity and compassion. Our hearts are with the people of Ukraine, and their strength reminds us of what true courage looks like.
