How to Pray for Ukraine
As Christians around the world process these events, and as churches pray in their gatherings this Sunday, we wanted to offer some ways to pray, along with some accompanying Scripture passages:
Pray for the safety and protection of the Ukrainian citizens and military personnel.
“God reigns over the nations; God sits on his holy throne.” (Psalm 47:8)
Pray for Ukrainian church leaders as they care for the church members that are affected by this conflict.
“ … For we are powerless against this great horde that is coming against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.” (2 Chronicles 20:12)
Pray for displaced missionaries as they seek to minister to those who remain in harm’s way.
“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” (Isaiah 41:10)
Pray for the Ukrainian people to look to the gospel of Jesus Christ for hope during this challenging time.
“ … there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12)
Pray for followers of Jesus in Ukraine to be a light for the gospel during this dark time.
“ … let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 5:16)
Pray for God to put a stop to Russian aggression and to change Vladimir Putin’s plans in regard to Ukraine.
“Ah, Lord GOD! It is you who have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm! Nothing is too hard for you.” (Jeremiah 32:17)
Pray that God would give leaders of the U.S. and other countries wisdom and courage as they make important decisions in the coming days and weeks.
“First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way.” (1 Timothy 2:1–2)

OUR CORE VALUES
We unashamedly and uncompromisingly strive to be:
BIBLICALLY BASED
God’s Word is our guide, authority, and conscience in everything we do. Psalm 119:105
FULLY DEVOTED TO CHRIST
We measure our success by our full devotion to Christ and our ability to be and make disciples. Luke 9:23
GROUNDED IN GRACE
We acknowledge our complete dependence on the goodness and grace of God. We have experienced it, therefore we eagerly extend it to others. Ephesians 2:89
PASSIONATE ABOUT WORSHIP AND PRAYER
We are called to exalt Christ as the center of every aspect of our lives. John 4:23 We believe the attitude and action of prayer is essential to everything we do. Colossians 4:2
COMMITTED TO PEOPLE
We believe that people matter to God, therefore they matter to us. Jesus came to seek and save the lost and has left us here to do the same. Luke 19:10
FOCUSED ON MINISTRY AND SERVICE
Every believer is a minister and we believe that the Holy Spirit has imparted to each one a spiritual gift; empowering and equipping us to minister out of our gifts and passion. 1 Peter 4:10, Colossians 3:17
A PEOPLE OF EXCELLENCE
Because God gave His very best for us we offer excellence in our service to Him. In serving Christ, love will always be our motivation and excellence will always be our goal. Psalms 29:2
Because God gave His very best for us we offer excellence in our service to Him. In serving Christ, love will always be our motivation and excellence will always be our goal. Psalms 29:2
