Available now: Safe in the Storm – A Ukrainian Children’s Tale

Read the story then find out how you can help refugee children

Safe in the Storm a Ukrainian Children’s Tale is a story that gives a message of hope to Ukrainian refugee children displaced throughout Europe. Written by an American pastor and beautifully illustrated by an elementary school art teacher this children’s adventure tale answers the question, “When I feel alone, how do I know God really cares?”

The first Ukrainian/Russian printing of 25,000 copies will be given away freely in Europe during the summer of 2022. Please share this story with your friends, read it to your children, and then pray for those children displaced by war.

While the story is only published in the language of the refugees, you may read a digital copy by clicking the image below. Following the story, watch the interview to learn how God providentially brought about this children’s book from start to finish in less than 30 days. You will discover ways you can help towards the end of the blogpost.

3 WAYS YOU CAN HELP:

(1) Prayer partners are needed.

Numerous prayer partners were essential in taking this project from start to finish in less than a month. Additional prayer partners are needed for contacts with mission agencies, churches and refugee centers throughout Poland and Europe for distribution this summer.

(2) Contacts in Europe are needed.

By God’s gracious provision, we have 50,000 books to give away in Europe in June/July. 10,000 of these will go directly into Ukraine. The remaining 40,000 (both the adult Safe in the Storm book on anxiety and the children’s story A Ukrainian Tale) will need to be distributed throughout Europe. The books are free but will be distributed in bulk delivery. If you know of those in Europe who are ministering to refugees, please contact us at jason@biblicalstrategies.com.

(3) Funds for printing are needed.

All of the work for the children’s book was done pro bono. That means that your gifts will go directly to the cost of printing. Using a connection to a printer in Europe, we are able to print each book for around $1.00 each. Imagine. For the cost of your favorite Starbucks drink, you could bless 5-6 refugee children with a 50-page, full-color adventure story in their language. All gifts are tax-deductible. You can give online here. Or you can make checks out to “Advancing Biblical Strategies” and mail them to: 72 Kirschling Drive, Woolwich, NJ 08085
