I got a prayer request today originally from a Finnish brother (Risto) about the war in Ukraine. The following is my translation (and I've added those in parentheses):
"The Russian troops have started to deport Ukrainians to Russia from the areas they have conquered. This same thing happened also during the Finnish Winter War (against Sovietunion), when the Finnish warprisoners were deported to Siberia (into labour/concentration camps).
Only God can stop this. Let us pray that God will intervene and stop this, and also that only God's will will happen in the Ukranian war and not the will of the rulers of this world."
I found a link about how Ukrainians are being deported to Russia:
@MaryMamuzich yes, we will too!

Hello dear Sari, the Aljazeera news article that you posted could not confirm if this is true, but our Finnish brother in Christ, Risto has just confirmed this. We don't know if they are deporting regular citizens or POW's. It's all terrible and we need to keep praying. 🙏🙏🙏
@sarikorpi so sad! I will continue to pray.
