Have you heard about World Help’s Bibles for All Ambassadors?

This special group of monthly donors provides copies of God’s Word to persecuted Christians living in places like North Korea and South Asia, people who can’t afford a Bible of their own, and refugees who had to leave their copies behind.

Above all, Bibles for All Ambassadors help make sure that when someone needs a Bible, there is one available to give them. That’s what happened to Anna.

When Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, countless people saw their lives uprooted and destroyed right before their eyes. They were forced to either evacuate or adapt to the constant shellings and attacks on their neighborhoods … or leave.

Many families, including Anna’s, searched for hope in these dark times.

Bibles provide unshakable hope to those facing uncertain futures

Anna, her husband Misha, and her two children, Yan and Emilia, lived in the city of Kramatorsk. Anna and Misha owned and operated a salon. They were a close-knit family who spent a lot of time together and enjoyed frequent family outings.

But on the day the Russians invaded, their world shattered. Their home was suddenly on the front lines of a brutal war, and all men of fighting age — including Misha — were forbidden to leave the country in case they were needed in battle.

So the family traveled west, still inside the country but far away from the worst of the fighting.

Anna and Misha constantly worried about how they would afford rent, food, and the supplies their kids needed for school. They both found jobs, but they were making much less than they had been back home, and the price of food and other essentials had skyrocketed because of the war.

Hopeless and scared, Anna began searching for God. One day, our partners in Ukraine visited Anna and Misha and told them about a Christian church they could attend.

When they arrived at the church, the family was met with encouragement, open arms, and plenty of food. And thanks to Bibles for All Ambassadors, Anna and Misha were given a Bible in the Ukrainian language and a children’s Bible for Yan and Emilia.

Now, Anna has God’s Word to help her during these difficult times. In fact, her entire family can now read and study the Bible together every day!
