US Pastors Network to Provide Aid in Ukraine

Network of Pastors in the United States Vow to Help the Region Receive Humanitarian Aid

APN International Projects Coordinator, Pastor Dale Armstrong, who recently returned from Ukraine, says the most immediate need there is humanitarian aid, including water purification tablets and individual medical kits for each soldier.

"One of the most immediate needs is water purification tablets, as much of the water supply in Ukraine is tainted, and finding clean water can be difficult," Armstrong said. "Another great need is a supply of QuikClot bandages, which stop the bleeding of the injured fast. We discovered during our recent trips that the bandages were not only life-saving, but as we provided them, it created trust and opened doors to other ways we can help."

Officials with the network say they have begun the process of securing donations to purchase supplies for packages that will include items such as the special sterile bandages, water purification tablets, socks, t-shirts, men's underwear, wet wipes, soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes, cold-weather clothing, athletic shoes, thermal blankets, charcoal briquettes for emergency heating, flashlights, batteries and binoculars.

"It's part of APN's Ukraine Initiative, which is leading efforts to help the nation of Ukraine experience a new birth of freedom," said officials in regards to the project.

"What we are seeing in Ukraine is truly remarkable," said APN President Sam Rohrer, who is also president of the Pennsylvania Pastors Network. "Here's a nation and people in the throes of the pursuit of civil freedom and self-government who deserve our help. By officially opening their doors and welcoming help from APN, not only in meeting immediate needs but also in seeking to build a new government built on Biblical principles, they are demonstrating remarkable courage, wisdom, and leadership in a time that demands our full prayers and physical support not only from Christians, but all Americans alike."
