Ukrainian amputees with gospel hope

L to R: Kristina, Katie Leatherwood and Davyd

One of the questions I am asked whenever I return from Latvia is: ‘What is the mood in Latvia at the moment?’

The question relates to the fact that Latvia shares a land border with Russia and has many historical reasons to be anxious about the intentions of its larger neighbour.

My answer to the question is that the mood is mixed. There is a weariness about the war in Ukraine, with some signs of aid-fatigue, but support for Ukraine here is solid.
