“I never wanted to leave my home in Ukraine, but then Russia invaded Ukraine. My family picked me up early from school one day and said that I could go home and pick any toy I wanted, but we had to leave the country immediately. I thought that it would only be for a few weeks, but it ended up being a permanent change. God kept my family safe. Please pray for me to learn a new language and make new friends in a new country.” Jackson, 11.
