Please read Ministry in Ukraine Issues Urgent Call to Prayer, by Greg Yoder, at Mission Network News.
"Hundreds of thousands of protestors continue protesting the Ukrainian government. Now, the situation appears out of control as Ukraine gets more violent. While many of the peaceful protestors continue their vigil, they’re now being joined by thugs trying to take advantage of a lawless situation. President of Russian Ministries Sergey Rakhuba grew up in Ukraine, and his family still lives there; this week has been difficult for him. “First blood was shed a couple of days ago. The violence is escalating, and unfortunately, the government–the president–is not taking any decisive steps to bring any reconciling, non-violent solution to the situation.”
"Cars are being turned over and burned. Ukrainians are attacking Ukrainians.
"Faith community takes action as Ukraine gets more violent.
"Rakhuba, through his tears, says the faith community is asking those involved to stop the violence and to unite. Believers “are gathering together, praying for peace. So, I appeal to the global Christian community to lift Ukraine, to lift my homeland, to God.” "
