I Prayed have prayed
Lord God, we pray that these meals would satisfy hunger and provide a means for spiritual hunger to be filled.
Reading Time: 3 minutes

I am full of gratitude for the abundant generosity of IFA intercessors for the needs of Ukraine. This weekend I traveled to Florida to help pack the second million meals that will be sent to Ukraine. We packed 500,000 meals that filled 3 shipping containers. They will ship this week to Romania and then be distributed to Ukrainians from there.

Post a prayer for your state!

 

I couldn’t bring you with me, but I took photos to share my experience with you. It was such a joy to be with such a diverse group of Christians who gathered to bless Ukrainians. It felt wonderful to be with regular folks who care. I saw faith in action, doing something to help a problem far away.

Here I am with my group of packers. The method is simple. One person holds the bag in place, then each of us put in oats, protein, dehydrated apples, etc. Then each filled bag is vacuum sealed and ready for shipment. These meals are shelf-stable, yet have abundant nutrients.

Volunteers from all kinds of churches packed the meals. One church encouraged members to pack meals in place of one of their weekend services.

One of the other organizations participating on the day I packed, No Child Hungry, brought volunteers to help.

I was so impressed with No Child Hungry and with the work release prisoners who packed with us. The prisoners all love the Lord. Part of a large live-in program, they work during the day. They were all believers and showed a joyful appreciation of the opportunity to make a difference in the world outside of prison.

It was a pleasure to meet this mother from Ukraine. She has lived in the U.S. for 10 years. Of course she is happy to help support the needs of Ukrainians during the war.

Your prayers and donations to UkraineMeals.com are at work helping and feeding Ukrainians. You might not be able to pack meals in Florida or distribute meals in Ukraine, but you are part of the effort. I am so thankful for the prayers and support from the IFA community for this good cause. Let’s all pray together that these meals will open doors for the message of salvation in Jesus Christ.

How are you praying for these meals as they are shipped off to the Ukrainian people? Share your thoughts and prayers below.

“Blessed is the one who considers the poor! In the day of trouble the Lord delivers him; the Lord protects him and keeps him alive; he is called blessed in the land; you do not give him up to the will of his enemies. The Lord sustains him on his sickbed; in his illness you restore him to full health.”

Who is helping the refugees in Warsaw? I’m going there with East West’s Women’s ministry to reach out to the 3000 Ukrainian women and children at a refugee center there.
