In many places in Switzerland, a number of Ukrainian or Russian worship services, prayer and Bible groups have already been established. To support these efforts, on Friday, June 24, we organized with our network a national meeting of Ukrainians who are working in Switzerland in a key spiritual role. We called this meeting “Ukrainian Swiss Christian Summit.” About 50 people participated. Our target group were Ukrainians who have taken on a key spiritual role (pastors, leaders of prayer and Bible groups…) and Swiss representatives of churches who offer spiritual ministries for Ukrainians.

Time and time again Welcome Churches has been encouraged by the way the Church has stepped up to be at the forefront of welcoming those seeking refuge in the UK. After the rapid takeover of Afghanistan by the Taliban in August 2021 approximately 20,000 people arrived in the UK, almost overnight, and the UK church mobilised to welcome Afghan families and provide practical help. Amidst the tragedy of the war in Ukraine, we have once again seen stories of hope emerging from the UK church as they welcome refugees into their communities.

Read moreWelcome to June! This month we leave Spring behind and enter Summer. It has been a long and challenging year, and summer has it’s own set of challenges. While some things get quieter, other things get busier – camps, kid’s programs, less human resources in church (logistic challenges). It is also the time that we usually try and fit in our holiday, to get a break from the hectic pace of the other seasons.
