"I feel called to stay and minister — here in the bomb shelter." March 04, 2022
Instead of leaving Ukraine for the United States when the conflict erupted, Pastor Benjamin Morrison explained this is home and his calling is to minister and support those in need.  He along with his wife and two teenage children are offering humanitarian aid and support to Ukrainians from the East fleeing West.  Nestled in a small port town of 45,000, Morrison is raising funds from American churches for Ukrainians in need.  For two decades he has developed a network of Protestant clergy across the region, now they are turning to each other for comfort and using their voices to raise awareness about the Russian aggression and the need for support.
