Still Supporting Ukrainians in Romania
Driving along the highway and passing a military convoy, its transport carriers with their extra wide vehicle base, brings the Ukrainian/Russian war close to Bucharest. Seeing the phone videos, with the red drones and yellow explosions in the night sky, in what was recently considered the safer, western end of the Ukraine only a few kilometers from the Romanian border, brings the war close to home.
Vera continues to serve the Ukrainians attending the Bucharest International Church. With her five languages, she also works with the US embassy providing translation services. On one occasion, with her keen knowledge of logistics, Vera was able to link information to find a suitable home for a woman desperately needing accommodation. “The extra special in this instance,” Vera said, “was that both the lady needing housing and the lady renting the house, had the same name.”
