Apostolove was bombed daily in the summer of 2022 when it became a frontline city in the Russian invasion of Ukraine. But Svoboda (Freedom) Church continued to serve its community thanks to its Sister City Community Fellowship of West Chicago (IL) which came alongside it. With this financial and prayer help, they were able to put up a humanitarian aid tent where they supply food and clothing to the victims of war. Ukraine Collective, a project group within the Transform Uzhhorod Alliance, has now developed 16 Sister Church Associations all around Ukraine in partnership with One Collective.
