Late on Saturday night, our staff and the entrepre Late on Saturday night, our staff and the entrepreneurs we serve in Kyiv, Ukraine, endured one of the most intense attacks of the war so far. Russia launched over 40 ballistic missiles in an hour—damaging buildings, starting fires, injuring over 15 people, and killing one elderly woman.

We continue to grieve and lament the loss of life, shattered dreams, and ongoing trauma that our Ukrainian staff and families we serve experience each day.

Thankfully, our staff and those we serve are safe, and we're continuing to check in with them regularly. Please continue to pray for protection, for endurance and supplies as Kyiv rebuilds, and a swift and just end to the war.

Lucinda and her husband once struggled to meet dai Lucinda and her husband once struggled to meet daily needs as farmers in the Philippines. Determined to change their circumstances, Lucinda took her first loan in 2004 through our partner, the Center for Community Transformation (CCT). She started with pig farming and eventually grew into fishing and retail.

Not only did Lucinda see success in her businesses, but she also helped her Bajao neighbors—members of an indigenous local group. She offered them job opportunities, taught them to read and write, and shared the Gospel.

Lucinda’s story has not been one without trials and loss. Her businesses were severely impacted by COVID-19, and seasonal storms have swept away some of her fishing boats. Even so, she places her trust in God to provide and has remained rooted in an ongoing relationship with CCT.

For over 20 years, her vision, resilience, and compassion for her community have been a testament to God’s faithfulness, and He continues to use what she has in her hands to bless others.

Imagine raising a family while facing poverty and Imagine raising a family while facing poverty and homelessness. This was a reality for Chantal many years ago. With a small loan, she started selling casava flour on the streets of Kigali, Rwanda—a meaningful first step out of poverty.

Through hard work and God’s provision, Chantal (pictured with her family) has expanded her work into a restaurant and cares for nine children—including six she has welcomed into her home.

Once burdened by hunger and uncertainty, her family has now overcome malnutrition and looks forward to a brighter future!
