Christian aid surges into Florida after Hurricane Ian
Once again, the Gulf Coast Church of Christ is serving as a relief hub after a major hurricane pounded Florida.
But this hurricane, Ian, surpassed anything church members had seen.
“It’s the worst storm I’ve witnessed in my 62 years in Florida,” Delina Caldwell told The Christian Chronicle eight days after the Category 4 storm made landfall near Fort Myers. “Please pray for our work here.”
Ukrainian Christians Recall 51 Days Huddled In Church Building As City Was Destroyed
“Keep praying, Sasha!”
Huddled in a hallway as bombs reduced their Ukrainian city to rubble, members of the Mariupol Church of Christ urged Alexander Chekalenko — Sasha — to call on the Lord for protection.

So Sasha kept praying. Or he read Psalm 23: “Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me.” Soon, the children had it memorized.
