Dear Brother Pál!
Dear Józsué. Dear CMI Missionaries!
I have been asked by László Daróczi-Csuhai, the leader of MEK Hungary, to reach out to CMI
international, in case there are those who are interested in continuing to send assistance to
those who are starving in the Ukraine. MEK Hungary offers the possibility to send aid. I,
Leonárd Hanykovics, have been given the responsibility of organizing aid to Ukrainian
refugees in or traveling through Hungary and sending aid to those starving who have
remained in the Ukraine.
Over the past 40 days, by the order of President Putin, Russian troops have heavily bombed
the Ukraine. Their main targets have been apartment complexes and electric stations.
Unfortunately, not only soldiers are dying, but children, women, and elderly. Today there
are large cities that stand in ruins. 60% of their electric stations have been destroyed.
Because of this millions of people in the Ukraine are freezing. No electric, no heat. Most of
Ukraine is already covered in snow. The people have no money with which to buy food.
My colleagues who have remained in the Ukraine are asking for help. We have been able to
send shipments of food and basic supplies. They are also specifically requesting 15 KW
electric generators. There are many churches that have been cooking hot meals for the
many refugees and starving in their areas. However, because they now do not have
electricity they are not able to prepare the meals. Our church in Munkacsevo has been
serving lunch to 150 people daily. As are many other churches in the western regions.
As Christians, what can we do?
Pray for an end to this war
Help us to continue to provide food and basic supplies to those in need. Including diapers
for small children and for disabled patients. And, if possible, help us to provide generators
so that the churches will be able to provide hot meals for the starving throughout the cold
winter months.
I am including our missions bank account number, as there are people who find it easier to
give a gift if they are giving to an official ministry.
