Hi friends and supporters!

Thank you for your patience in waiting for an update. With the war raging on in Ukraine, Dad and Mom have been continuing with their work in Romania and Ukraine. They have been busy with the mothers and children who are in the Center, with taking supply trips into Ukraine to the Churches and Defenders, and they have also hosted various groups of people who have come to help.

Recently, several individuals and teams from Norway were a huge blessing at the Calarasi United building project as well as ministering to the widows and children in Rasa and helping Dad with driving into Ukraine.



This past weekend, Dad made an exhausting 27-hour journey into Ukraine (close to Odessa) and back. He wanted to arrive at the border first thing in the morning, so they departed at 1:00 am on Friday. He says, "We made it to the delivery point after a very long night and day of customs problems, as well as long, long, lines of slow trucks on the highways. Made it home at 4:00 am Saturday morning..." Dad says he feels too old for these long trips, and yet he just keeps on going!




In Ukraine, the families of the military guys came to meet them, and as always, they were so grateful for all the help. They received tools, chainsaws, shovels, sleeping bags, underwear, and warm items for the coming cooler months, and lots of food, gas, and other necessities.






The Defenders sent a message to Dad afterward saying, "We got your parcel, thank you so much! Underwear and everything that we needed! Oranges - we have already eaten some, very tasty! Energy drinks! Knee pads! Snacks! Gloves! Sleeping bags! Everything is quite good! Thank you so much!"



Please pray:

- for Reinhard to have good rest, and strength to keep going with the deliveries, as well as the ministry going on in Romania.

- for Darcey as she prepares to travel to Canada next week. She will be spending some much-needed time with her elderly parents, and of course, her children and grandchildren (yay!)

- for physical help and finances for the upcoming deliveries to the Churches in Nikolaev, Odessa and Reni.

- for peace and joy for the mothers, children, and staff in the Rasa Family Center

Dad and Mom are so grateful for your continued support as you pray, as you send encouraging messages to them, and as you send finances that enable them to care for the refugees and deliveries into Ukraine. The Ukrainian Churches, the Defenders, and their families are also SO grateful to you!

God bless you,

Jenni (for Reinhard and Darcey Neufeld)
