Your Missionaries Rush to Aid Refugee Moms from Ukraine
Without your generosity, Lisa and her child wouldn’t be alive today.
When bombs started falling in Kyiv, her family sent its weakest members to safety in Poland. Grandpa with his pacemaker. Grandma with her walker. Five children under five years old. One aunt. And Lisa, seven months pregnant.
On the way, Lisa started to bleed. Her ankles were swelling. Then when night fell, the bus broke down.
The little family trudged the last ten miles through the snow, carrying the children most of the way. Lisa’s bleeding and swelling got worse and worse. By the time they made it over the border she could barely walk.
Moms Need Your Pregnancy Care Centers More than Ever Right Now
The war in Ukraine is throwing families into situations like this every day. Moms are trying to escape the violence to protect their pre-born children. But life as a refugee isn’t safe either.
Many of these moms have nowhere to go and nothing to live on. The ordeals they go through can cause pregnancy complications.
Anti-life groups are using the climate of fear to push abortion. Instead of bringing a mom food and shelter and medical care, they offer to kill her child. When there is no real care available, some moms are scared enough to go through with it.
That could have happened to Lisa. But because of you, the family fell into good hands.
Your Generosity saved Lisa’s Life, and Her Baby’s Life
Thanks to you, several pregnancy care centers in eastern Europe are going strong. When Lisa and her family made it over the border, a volunteer brought them to HLI Poland.
The centers you support help families overcome their circumstances and choose life. Depending on the need, you might help them with medical care, food, housing, adoption, job seeking, etc.
Right now, your centers are flooded with refugee moms like Lisa who need food, medical care, and temporary homes.
The doctor took one look at Lisa and rushed her to the hospital for an emergency C-section. She and the baby both survived, but it was a close call. The doctor said she was an hour from death when she arrived. Your generosity saved their lives just in time!
Lisa wasn’t the only member of her family who needed your help.
Her aunt and two of the little children were immediately hospitalized for frostbite. They are doing better now, thanks to you.
Saving Families is Possible Because of You
Thanks to you, Lisa is alive. Thanks to you, her family is safe. Thanks to you, she was able to welcome her child.
Your compassion makes all the difference in the world to families like Lisa’s. Without you, Lisa would have had nowhere to go. She might have died from complications or fallen victim to an abortion pusher.
But because you believe that every human life has value, mom and child both made it through.
This is just one of the many refugee families saved by your compassion. Thank you so much for making it possible.
