Update Ukraine: A conversation with Koen Carlier

The war in Ukraine has been raging for two years. How does this affect the work of Christians for Israel in Ukraine. We discuss the uncertainties that the raging war brings with Koen Carlier, Aliyah Field Worker of Christians for Israel. Our mission in Ukraine goes beyond providing comfort to the Jewish people; we assist them in a practical way. This includes supporting soup kitchens, distributing food parcels to Jewish elderly and Holocaust survivors, and facilitating Aliyah (the immigration of people to Israel).

Food parcel Update Ukraine

In recent weeks we handed out food parcels mainly in the East and South East of Ukraine. Our goal is not only to bring comfort, but also practical help, like supporting soup kitchens, helping with making aliyah, and packing and handing out food parcels. People sometimes line up hours in advance, afraid  that there will not be enough, especially elderly who have endured the Soviet Union.

We hope to be able to distribute food parcels soon towards cities near the war zone, while it is still possible. Think of Sumy, Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Nikolayev, Chernihiv and then back to Kharkov, Odessa… In the coming months over 10,000 food parcels will be needed. Will you help while it is still possible? One food parcel costs 15 euros. Any amount is welcome!
