Hello family and friends. We are reaching out to you for the much-needed support of our dear family friend of many years. Edgar who lives Kyiv Ukraine with his wife Ani, who is expecting their first child and his elderly parents. They are all living together in the ware zone of Kyiv in Ukraine. They are unable to leave their city because of his families condition not being able to travel. Shelling has now escalated in their area this week and there is no way out. Edgar was caught in the cross fire while assisting people to shelter and has been injured and had 4 surgeries now. As I write this they are seeking safety in a bomb shelter close to their apartment

building. In spite of the horrific sights of death he sees daily and the sound of warsirens, missiles and shelling near by, he risks his life daily bringing medical

supplies to children's hospital, providing food and medicine for the elderly, delivering supplies to the animal shelters. Also, twice daily, he is feeding and caring for homeless animals left behind, who have learned to trust his familiar face. He transports the wounded animals to the veterinarian hospital for medical attention such as: lost eyes or paws etc. caused by the explosions of the war.

I am asking please for your prayers and if you're able to provide any assistance, this would be much appriciated to our incredible friend, "earth angel", as my family calls him, so he can keep helping his neighbors in Ukraine. There is no work at this time and finances are becoming difficult when you are helping daily so many that are in desperate need. There is great need for daily food and medicine for both people and animals. I ask you please for your prayes of protection on this lovely family, they are trapped in their own once beautiful country. Each day they are finding stength to carry on only by helping others around them. Please share if you would like with your firend and family.

Thank you so very much for your prayers and support.
