Dear Pastor Neuman and Brother Marvin Van Haften,
I have learned from Pastor Neal Schroeder about a very generous gift to the Barnabas Project
from you. We appreciate it very much. Ukrainian Lutheran Church is one of the largest church
bodies of our fellowship in Europe and it is in a very difficult situation as our support declined
rapidly and Ukrainian economy is in the worst condition in Europe now. Results of recent
Presidential elections, as some experts say, may cause shrinking of religious freedom in our
country. We hope and pray it does not happen. Yet we know the Lord is loving us, and He has
expressed his love through your congregation. We continue to preach the Word and administer
the Sacraments whatever happens around us but what a joy bring such news that we are not
forgotten and that we are not alone but have faithful brothers and sisters in Christ! Thank you
very much!
Have a blessed Lenten Season!
In Christ Crucified,
Slavik Horpynchuk
Bishop, Ukrainian Lutheran Church
