As of March 11, 2022, $21,000 has been sent to especially help the orphan children both inside Ukraine and in the surrounding countries. Buses from Poland carry food provided by our donors into Kiev and other cities, and then carry women and children out.

Direct appeal from Father’s House mission In Ukraine Posted March 12, 2022 Dear Brothers and Sisters, Friends. The Father’s House ministry sincerely thanks you for your partnership and assistance in our ministry for the literal rescue of orphans in Ukraine. Thanks to the funds you sent, we were the first in Ukraine to evacuate children very quickly, not only from the Father’s House, but also from the state orphanage, which is located 50km from us. The next day, Russian troops entered the village. What would have happened to these defenseless children is frighteningly hard to imagine. According to the experience of the capture of Crimea and the war in eastern Ukraine, Russians use orphans as human shields, placing their anti-aircraft missiles on the territory of such institutions, as well as with impunity for sexual violence against teenage girls. The Father’s House from the first day of the war was committed to be on the line of fire. Not far from us was an anti-aircraft military unit, which was fired at with missiles in the first minutes of the war. Sleepy and frightened children ran into our bomb shelter and even after the brief explosions were afraid to get out of it. Some 30-35km from the Father’s House, a column of tanks took up position to attack Kyiv. Fighting broke out nearby in Vorzel and Bucha, killing adults and children. So far, during the war, we know of 78 children who have died and will never grow up. Again, thanks to your help, WE SAVED 220 children and 30 adults! Thank God for you! During our departure, the Lord SENT us His Angels, who led us along the oncoming lane past traffic jams, which stood along the entire route from Kiev to L’viv (a road that usually takes 5 hours to cover, took all day) and led us through a 10km queue in front of the border, where people stood for 4 days (by the way, the next day this queue was fired at with missiles from the territory of Belarus). Near Rivne, we were hit by an air raid, but the Lord saved us. Glory to Him. All the way we did for 4 days; the children were under such stress that even the little ones didn’t make any noise or indulge. It seemed that all our children in one moment grew up by 10 years. On the way, the children did not want to eat or drink. It was only after arriving in the city of Freiburg, Germany, on the 5th day of safety that they began to return to their childhood. Thank you for RETURNING childhood to these children and the opportunity to live in peace and joy! Thanks to you, these children will surely grow up and bring great fruit for the Kingdom of God, in which there will be Glory to our God and the destiny of your reward from God! Since we gathered for the evacuation in just 3 hours, we did not have time to take a number of things that at that time seemed to us not a priority, but now due to their absence we cannot work properly. 24:14 WORLD EXCLUSIVE REPORT All photos provided without captions.

Direct appeal from Father’s House mission In Ukraine, continued We were able to quickly purchase a vehicle on which we are using to take children to the hospital, buy food, bring the necessary things for life. Thank you very much! We now have a roof over our heads, but food costs us 10 euros per child per day. In total – 2,200 euros per day. Can you help cover these costs for at least 2 weeks? Thank you very much! With Love and prayer for you, the great family of the Father’s House! These photos are in Germany. On behalf of mission leaders in Ukraine. Testimony: My name is Sasha. I'm 12 years old. We only saw the war in the movies and it seemed interesting to us. But on that terrible day I was awakened by explosions nearby and the walls of our Father’s House shook. At first, I didn't even understand what had happened. When the tutor said that the war had started, I was scared. War in the movies and in reality are different things! We all quickly ran to the bomb shelter and prayed to God to save us! All the children were so frightened that no one even indulged, talked or cried. I didn't know what would happen to us… would we be able to survive, would our dreams that we received in the Father's House come true? We were very SCARED! All the children clung to their caregivers, even those who did not like to be hugged. So we sat for several hours. When the explosions subsided and we were told we could go up to our rooms, no one wanted to leave the bomb shelter. Our director, Roman, came to us and promised that the Lord would save us and help us go to a place where there would be no war. All day we all sat in our rooms, clinging to our chairs, ready to flee to the bomb shelter again. None of us wanted to sleep, eat or drink. We listened to the roar of distant explosions. It was getting dark on the street and we were told that in 3 hours we would get aboard buses to take us somewhere. We gathered the most necessary things and waited for departure. Getting on the bus, we all stared at the sky in fear. When we left for the road, we saw that it was full of cars that were moving very slowly. We were afraid that now they would be able to shoot us very easily on this road. We were a very handy target! Due to the fact that we were accompanied by God's angels — the police we left and on the oncoming lane, where military equipment was already moving, overcame the distance to Rivne, west of Ukraine without stopping. Everyone was so scared that none of the children even moved. Before leaving, Roman said that we had all grown 10 years that day and had to behave according to our age. I always wanted to grow up and be an adult, but suddenly growing up did not please me. It was difficult to feel 22 years old and take responsibility for younger children because there was no room for educators on the buses. In Rivne, our buses stopped to take us to the toilet’s. As soon as I went to the toilet there were explosions. A team arrived so we could all run to the buses. Our drivers turned off the lights and we ran away from the shelling at full speed. When we arrived in Poland, a jet flew low over us, and almost all of our children got hit by air missile. Now I am with other children thanks to you in a safer place in Germany. There is no war here. We are all safe! We no longer need to hide and fall to the ground. Thank you for your support and prayers. 24:14 WORLD EXCLUSIVE REPORT All photos provided without captions. MARCH 11, 2022 PAGE 3
