Helping the Jewish Community Amid War – Koen Carlier
It’s now 2025, and the war in Ukraine has been raging for nearly three years. The need for support has never been greater. C4I Ukraine is working tirelessly to assist the Jewish community in Ukraine, providing aid and hope in these difficult times.
Today, we have Koen Carlier in our studio to share firsthand insights into their crucial work and the current situation on the ground.
‘God had called us to serve the Jewish people’
“The current war in Ukraine has lasted longer than World War II.” This is what people say in Ukraine. While it may seem surprising to some, much of Eastern Ukraine was liberated by the Red Army by the end of 1943.
Today, in 2024, the war but also our work in Ukraine continues. We deliver food parcels, provide Meals on Wheels, and assist those making Aliyah to Israel. But it is more than just basic needs; the social connection is essential. For most Jewish people in Ukraine, there is no one left to turn to, and people need our support.
Anemone Rüger (C4I’s Project Coordinator in Ukraine) shares her experiences visiting people in Ukraine with the team, providing help and bringing comfort. She also shares about our new project in Moldova, which was recently started.

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).
