• Prayer Breakfasts are traditionally held in different regions of Ukraine. Today, such an event took place in Cherkasy, uniting spiritual leaders, representatives of the authorities and the city community. The prayer event in Cherkasy once again proved that in times of trials, prayer remains the space where unity, hope and strength to move forward are born.
• In this Christmas period, the Interfaith Mobile Group of the Military Chaplaincy Service of the Armed Forces of Ukraine made a pastoral trip to the East of the country. Chaplains visited combat units to support Ukrainian soldiers with prayer and to convey the Bethlehem Fire of Peace – a symbol of hope and light in times of war.
• Currently, Ukrainian defenders are confidently holding the defense on the approaches to Kostyantynivka, in the Donetsk region, despite Russian statements about alleged control over part of the city.
• The Energy Development Fund of Georgia sent nine generators of various types and capacities to Ukraine.
• Over the past day, the Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed 3 tanks, 6 armored combat vehicles, and 113 units of automotive equipment.

💥 Threats remain:

• The Russians launched an air strike on the front-line city of Orekhov in the Zaporizhia region. They struck the Dnipropetrovsk region.
• The Russian occupiers advanced in the city of Myrnograd in the Donetsk region and Hulyaipole in the Zaporizhia region.
• Information and psychological special operations (IPSO) are not just propaganda, but part of a full-scale hybrid aggression. The Russians are using them to undermine the Ukrainians’ faith in victory and sow chaos within the state.

🙏 Prayer needs:

• We pray for the resolution of the unresolved issues after the meeting at the highest level in the USA, in particular, the functioning of the Zaporizhzhia NPP and the issue of territories. We pray for finding a middle ground regarding these points of the peace agreement, as well as for providing real security guarantees for Ukraine.

• As stated in the Word of God, we pray for the leaders of our country, for God’s wisdom for them in foreign policy, in conducting negotiations at various levels, in establishing new relations, in reaching agreements that are effective for our country.

• We intercede in prayer for our defenders, so that they may accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, so that they may not perish, but have eternal life in Him.

• In conditions of not only physical war, but also information war, there is a need to pray for the strengthening of our positions on this flank of the front. Russia is using powerful systemic propaganda against Ukraine, which is part of a full-scale hybrid aggression. We pray for effective counteraction to various hostile info-fake and provocative messages. That the enemies will not be able to influence the change in people’s moods and behavior through them, as well as sow panic, division, distrust of the authorities and critical institutions, undermine the morale of society and reduce the effectiveness of the defense and unity of Ukrainians.

• We pray for the strengthening of Ukraine, in particular, through the growth of economic indicators, the creation of healthy competition, as well as through the potential of entrepreneurship, in order to strengthen the power of sovereignty and protection from external aggression.

• We pray for those people and organizations that help return Ukrainian children from Russia. On the successful preparation of such missions and on the increase in the number of children returned to their homeland.

«Answer me when I call to you, my righteous God. Give me relief from my distress; have mercy on me and hear my prayer.»

«Although the peoples roar like the roar of surging waters, when he rebukes them they flee far away, driven before the wind like chaff on the hills, like tumbleweed before a gale. In the evening, sudden terror! Before the morning, they are gone! This is the portion of those who loot us, the lot of those who plunder us.»

According to the report, the most popular Bible verse of the year was 2 Timothy 3:16: “All Scripture is inspired of God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness.” The authors of the study believe that the choice of this particular verse shows that the majority of users are convinced that the Holy Scriptures have a divine origin, and are not the human product.

We pray for common ground in the negotiation process, for taking into account Ukrainian interests and for wisdom for the President of Ukraine.

Today, in times of great trials for our people, these words from the Bible take on special depth. When the world around us is filled with the pain of loss, injustice, and anxiety, we can find comfort, strength, and help in the One who is the eternal and mighty God!
• A Christmas nativity scene with a scene of worship of the newborn Jesus Christ has appeared on St. Sophia Square in Kyiv.

• The number of supporters of war has decreased to a record low in Russia.
• Over the past day, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have destroyed 3 tanks, 4 armored combat vehicles, and 159 units of automotive equipment.

• In these Christmas days, we continue to unite in prayer for Ukraine. We ask the Lord for a spiritual revival for our country, a return to life in dignity and freedom. We pray that everyone in our country will feel the joy of Christmas despite all the worries. That God’s peace, which surpasses all understanding, will reign in hearts.

• We embrace with prayer every defender, every family and everyone who has lost their home or loved ones. We ask for protection for our soldiers, healing for wounded souls and bodies. We believe that the Lord stands beside us today, helping us.

• Ukraine has entered the top ten countries in the world with the highest level of “brain drain” and has become the absolute leader in Europe in this indicator. There is a need to pray for an improvement in the security situation in the country, the restoration of justice and care for people, which are the main factors in the return of Ukrainians and the restoration of Ukraine.

• We pray for people who are being evacuated from communities that are constantly under Russian shelling. That they receive medical, legal, psychological and humanitarian assistance if necessary, and are also provided with housing.

That circumstances will not drown out the voice of faith in our hearts, that we will remember His promise: “I have overcome the world.” And this means that the last word will always be with God, not with evil.

🇺🇦 What we thank God for:

• We thank the Ukrainian churches, which during the war became some of the most active volunteers in the country. Thousands of Protestant churches have turned into volunteer hubs: they formed humanitarian cargoes, prepared food, sheltered displaced persons, organized evacuation from “hot” territories, supported the Ukrainian Armed Forces and units. Often, ministers and volunteers risked their lives delivering aid or taking people out of shelling. In many deoccupied areas, it was the churches that were the first to start repairing housing, restoring community centers, and providing psychological support.
• Another 18 children aged 2 to 17 were returned from the occupied Kherson region.
• Sweden will gradually stop development assistance to five countries in order to redirect funds to support Ukraine.
• The UK government is ready to transfer eight billion pounds of Russian assets frozen in the country to support Ukraine.

🔥 Threats remain:

• The occupiers attacked Kharkiv and the region, as well as the Dnipropetrovsk region with strike drones, as a result of which a 12-year-old boy died and there are injuries.

• Denmark will almost halve aid to Ukraine.
• Russia is increasing funding for the Global South, increasing external lending and debt cancellation to foreign countries.

🙏 Prayer needs:

• We pray for the cleansing and healing of our country. May it rise despite the forecasts and disappointing prospects. May it bow before God to receive the strength for resurrection.

• We pray for God’s support for our soldiers on difficult sections of the front. May the Lord lift and inspire those who are tired, whose hearts are gripped by fear and despair. May hope and God’s peace fill their hearts.

• Today, Ukraine and the world celebrate International Volunteer Day. Let us pray for those who do not remain indifferent and support Ukraine, our defense, our soldiers, and life in our communities. Let us pray for continued unity and mutual support of Ukrainians, especially in times when many want to divide us.

• We pray for financial support for Ukrainians from the state and strengthening of social protection measures. After all, the standard of living of many people in Ukraine has significantly decreased due to the war. For the appropriate distribution of budget funds.

• We pray for the sanctification of the believers of Ukraine, for the purification of hearts and motives. For unity in the cause of the revival of Ukraine and helping people.

«Thus says the Lord: “Keep justice, and do righteousness, for soon my salvation will come, and my righteousness be revealed. Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who holds it fast…and keeps his hand from doing any evil.”»

This is the first time that a book by a Ukrainian author has been recognized at this level in a leading evangelical magazine in the United States.

• We pray for the counteraction to Russian disinformation aimed at breaking Ukraine’s defense capabilities. For the coordination of actions in this together with international partners. For a reduction of propaganda in the information field.

• We pray that the Church in Ukraine will pray fervently in this difficult time, not to give up. As it is said in the Holy Scriptures:

💛💙 What we thank God for:

• The Council of Ukrainian Christian Churches of Washington State appealed to the US President to increase international pressure on Russia and achieve its unconditional ceasefire in Ukraine. Church leaders emphasized: a just peace is possible only if Moscow is forced to stop aggression and take responsibility for the crimes committed.
• Our military stopped the enemy in a strategically important direction – in Hulyaipole in Zaporizhia.
• ​​The Verkhovna Rada voted for the Budget-2026. It is expected that teachers’ salaries will increase by 30% from January 1 and by another 20% from September 1.
• Germany, Poland and Norway will jointly provide a new support package for Ukraine for a total of $ 500 million, of which $ 200 million will be provided by Germany. And Britain allocates an additional 10 million for the restoration of the Ukrainian energy sector.
• Over the past day, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have destroyed 6 tanks, 3 armored combat vehicles, and 47 units of automotive equipment.

🔥 Threats remain:

• The occupiers struck Kharkiv. They attacked the Dnipropetrovsk region with drones.
• Russian troops are approximately 30 kilometers from Zaporizhia.
• ​​Russia is using updated models of “Shaheds”, which pose a serious threat and the number of which will increase.
• As a result of Russian attacks on energy facilities, more than 17.5 thousand consumers in the Kharkiv region, about 5 thousand in the Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhia regions, as well as consumers in the Kherson region, have additionally lost power.
• The educational process in the occupied territories of Donbas is turning into a tool for preparing young people to participate in military operations. These measures are systemic in nature.

🙏 Prayer needs:

• We pray and bless our country. May it rise from the ashes, may it be strengthened by the power of the Lord. May what wicked people have conceived for evil not come to pass, but be stopped by power from above.

• We pray for the leaders of the country, regional leaders, that they act exclusively within the legal circle. That they be a consolidating force that unites society.

• We pray that the crimes of Russian criminals against peaceful people do not pass by the attention of the world community. After all, Russia constantly claims that it attacks only military facilities. For the provision of real facts of such crimes, for publicity and a reaction to the bloody murders of innocent people.

• We pray for the solution of educational problems, in particular, 40% of Ukrainian schools currently lack teachers. We pray for a solution to this personnel crisis, for the introduction of systemic incentives for this: for example, programs to provide teachers with housing; financial supplements for teachers in rural and remote communities; salary increases; the development of professional education and support for young teachers, etc. We pray that due attention is paid to this strategically important area at the state level.

• Another glaring problem is the demographic crisis. Experts are sounding the alarm because the birth rate in Ukraine has fallen to a historic low: the country is approaching a demographic abyss. We pray that the Lord will not allow the destruction of our nation, that He will help find a way out of this situation.

Only 1,625 children have been returned.

• We pray for the adoption of the 2026 budget, which remained uncoordinated due to internal disagreements among parliamentarians. Some of them advocate pushing for a general renewal of government, others are focused on demands for reforming law enforcement agencies or making changes to the budget. We pray that this issue will not be delayed, because it is extremely necessary for the country to have the financial plan for the next year.

• We pray for Ukrainian soldiers. May the Lord be the One on Whom they rely and place their hope on. Let them know Him, feel His love, and give Him their hearts.

• We pray for the demining of our territories, as Ukraine ranks fourth in the world in terms of the number of victims of mines. In addition, the pace of demining is decreasing due to lack of funding and the increasing level of danger for sappers. Let us pray for the allocation of funds specifically for these needs, for equipping, perhaps replacing sappers with robotics.

• We pray that the Church of Christ will be strengthened in the Spirit, that it will hear from Him how to pray and how to counteract the forces of evil. May the Lord raise up an army of the faithful who will boldly pray against the forces of darkness.
