kept taking place, ride up into the deadline, and my have also continued afterwards. pulling 40 people have been killed in 3 dies . all these riley strikes on the territory. you got to dice faith mat his he's up next on d w for maybe you can get more news on our website. he w dot com and follow us and social media. that's a helpful use. i'm jared raid state youth with red alert for the blue climate. ah, this isn't just drought, this is a rid of vacation. i think we're going to have some epic fighting here. all over

the world are, is becoming a scarce commodity. things just getting dryer and dryer and we need more and more water somewhere, earth dying of thirst. there's no water at all. then it's like be a pod with global struggle for water. and nothing can be done. the 1st starts august 10th on d. w with ah ah refugees from ukraine, stranded in berlin for

so long i want to go home. gun crocodile. broken as soon as possible. um yeah, the let me i'm scared of war. but we want peace to prevail when he happens, if they are very comfortable here and they'd like to stay. but of course that isn't possible because there are always more people coming up. we don't know yet if, if it were helping people in lead, irrespective of whether the believers, so go to church of whatever the parish center of st mark's lutheran church in berlin states,

district. it's been functioning as an emergency reception center since the beginning of march, when the 1st ukrainian refugees arrived in germany during the nazi era, the building house, the senate of the confessing church, which opposed the war. people made homeless by bombing raids, found refuge here. now the parish is offering emergency accommodation once again, providing food and care for 80 people the longest time he swam. oh for it was 90, he shipper i'm certain i have a guardian angel taking care of me. and i'm willing to cram off. he brought me to this place if you say, you'll see if a buddy of allison pleased him. my family has always been very religious on them. we went to church a lot magellio in soviet times honey. we suffered greatly from repression portion of national toyota of his article. many refugees spend

a large part of the day keeping in touch with relatives back home. the rest of the time they're finding their feet and getting to know berlin. ya cannot troubleshoot the parishioners help every way they can and would, would, would, would people helps you brennan's people no garage on among them. nothing's normal any more since the war started shows. i miss my father and my big brother were in a foreign country, brought the other there for so i no matter what life throws at me then i'll a dad. i like people and i like talking to them real quick. i show korea my osa mia . oh dominic willis as well. i was supposed to go to the hospital in khaki to be treated there. then the missile started flying them. the hospital no longer exists yet a little way over to there really thought i hope they'll be able to help me here in

germany. yellows available, most of the parish center provides basic services for most of the refugees. groceries abort with donations. pastor carolyn marie, good foot is delighted with the donors generosity and how quickly the project came together. canal citizen got us all st till martin. we always have a lot of fresh produce fruit tomatoes. and of course lots of potatoes, lamens onions. so if you have those are the things most need it on the whole food to cook, available or caretaker, remodeled the house, cleared up everything out. we arranged for beds through the brandenburg branch of the german red cross. i organized the donations and recruited a lot of volunteers to how comedy and after 6 days we were ready to welcome our guests here. hadn't gotten everything, was well prepared for that at the refugees. so need clothes, they weren't able to bring much with them. we hadn't, isn't it 9 o'clock a,

come by yet some that few. we've always had a clothing bank back, but now we have a lot more space and have labeled the items and made them more available. and so that anyone can help themselves at any time is our gases have responded very well once they choose things, they like things they need after fleeing their country switch. when the whole operation is dependent on volunteers, for the inexperienced interacting with refugees is often an emotional rollercoaster . this is the, the avoid with the gun l. i must say the refugee is very comfortable here. nothing after just 3 or 4 days, they're smiling as of vinegar that can really my d. c. m class, but some odd yet so cruel switch. be so awful. so terrible. what they've gone through me as to what i see on tv, or here on the radio or from lethal to the extent that we can communicate a bit. so i have to admit it brings tears to my eyes. that's good. got it just

incredible. ah . in i have been switched on abner, within 12 hours we had everything we needed to feed, but in 80 and a 100 people actually had us for showing christianity in practice here. so to speak, hang on, look at the members of our church and all the volunteers who had never done anything in the parish before or helped out are demonstrating it here. i think every one of these that that i put if i were you involved with the church previously gone, it had a glitch as it's been custody of me now. i don't mind. oh no, not at all. it was over. i'm not involved in the parish either. but not for any negative reasons, speak of it. we just never made contact. but i'm fully integrated here, and it's

a lot of fun. it's helping people to help themselves with him. when you see that you're helping people, it makes you feel a bit better when him and even if it's only cleaning, taking up the rubbish of wiping down the kitchen or whatever. could you vision? does weebly show her? but faith doesn't come into my yard dylan. it's much does it? well not in the sense that i'm now involved in the church, but it's faith in humanity, the accounts of compassion, just helping people where you can hear from uncle. ah, the lutheran church, of the holy trinity in berlin's shallow vogue district. a benefit concert to raise humanitarian aid for ukraine. music by international artists. some of them from war torn syria.

yeah, mm hm. and yeah, it warms my heart to think that we were in a similar situation with our syrian friends when there was war in syria. and there is still more in syria, they clique one of em enough to keep in that are syrian friends are now supporting us in this difficult situation. visit us on the find that thank you so very much. it was john. as a few seen, bankers ah says the start of the russian war of aggression in you train. they have been dozens, even hundreds of concerts like this to send a message of solidarity to ukrainians. ah, but the post to realize is that it's only a truck in the ocean. v

as in here and is m house michelson. be griffin oman, sky height. we're throwing big words around at this house. liberty, justice, and peace, manuel. but you can only get those things in small coins either. today i think we've experienced here on a small scale. what it can be like when people come together in the house under one roof. wanted him saying got under the blessing of god to share joy and music with each other. but when they're also united and spirit and difficult times. however, i do ask that you also help at the exit with large coins, also preferably with rustling bills russian and shine. and the concert organizes are determined that the donations not disappear into a large part and be spent on general projects in ukraine. on the contrary,

they have very specific aims and their ideas are sometimes controversial, providing equipment for ukrainian fighters, for instance, 1st aid medical packs. so the german lutheran church is collecting funds to supply military goods, albeit in a broad sense of the term. is that appropriate? as chris understood as a churches, we've always supported humanitarian organizations and humanitarian efforts to what we did today was to collect donations for 1st aid and emergency medical equipment for something i can support my artist target unless it's a sad occasion. but of course, we also want to help a little with our donations and express solidarity solidarity. so i was the 1st one . i think it's all one can do right now, what these people are doing, donating, we all feel better when we do that. i think even if one only makes us our donation, it's incredibly important. ah,

the former so called house the statistics built during the communist era. part of the derelict building has been taken over by salon ukraine. it's a project of the berlin city mission, a church based organization providing social services for people in difficult situations. the cafe is a meeting place for refugees from ukraine, helping them find their feet in a strange country. they have reached germany and are safe. but what now, what comes next often gonna, they want to know how to find a job where they can take language courses where their children can go to school or kindergarten. and so their problems here,

they can get information and exchange ideas. houses with us at the cafe is open to people of all ages. it's about helping people help themselves. not distributing handouts on them, thus isn't coffee, okay. half a ukraine is about meeting as equals, the to ukrainian women here are highly qualified professionals. one is a business coach. the other is an economist. they know what they compatriots need to know that they both have lots of contacts and are continuously inviting people. they know you have skills that are useful to the refugees, or who simply want to get to know the oil casino re a ball con, cooks regularly at cafe ukraine, chatting at the cocktail bow with summer on the way. she's now mixing fruit cocktails for her. delighted customers. the business woman has always been fascinated by what a good bartender can achieve. now said, chance to prove she's got what it takes when you are a guest,

ah, most of the time i really loved them. they asked me like what do you prefer? something sweet, something fi, see something like something to friends come from fresh. what do you once you even cannot name, can say anything. they just can make it perfectly a with for you what they just even talk to him. what's the secret? more than just to drink the bartender office an opportunity to converse, to enjoy life a little. that ease is the pain of being a stranger of leaving home to start a new life somewhere else. for me it's always my home. where is that? where is i, what is my family? there is my home. yeah, i miss a lot of. i mean, a lot of just a minute. more. but a guy as is august,

the pastoral care has an important role to play in the refugee and will crisis. some people arrive hair and at 1st they come down. then after a few weeks, the trauma becomes apparent. it's not easy to leave your home, your house, your familiar surroundings, and start afresh in a foreign country. you don't know what will happen to the people you've left behind, husbands and fathers, minutes. this is a stressful situation and of course, arriving in a foreign country and not speaking, the language is also very difficult. we have a psychologist here who office has services. people can approach her individually and arrange a session to fire learning to cope with anxiety. natalia cova leanne co teaches helpful skills through educational games. many of the women are worried sick about their husbands, sons and brothers caught up in the war with them on video. the some i believe in elaborate milling if i blooming young. but most of this is really the most painful issue. and not only for me who has family in ukraine,

my family is very important to you. i want us to be together. but i don't know if we can go back or away and just me bring you my own up there more than we got an offer. he got a dog rolled his faith play in his brutal question that some 78 percent of ukrainians identify as eastern orthodox christians. how comfortable do they feel among lutherans, or from am dana demi, another by far, but we have different religions, but that doesn't determine whether people help each other or not. if any of that for me it's just the opposite in. it's a great human story. by shy, we're all just people now and we help each other regardless of nationality or culture, you anything like that? that's pretty cool. i thought i had the what you thought on mash eyes. tova is working at the sewing machine in a side room of cafe ukraine. she's a fresh in design and had to give up her studio in cave sorta.

so she fled the war without any prospects now after just a few weeks, she's able to stand on her own 2 feet again. so. so i just i was there last year was, was less, but those are we have the opportunity to work and that's very important to us. ah, it's not just about survival and money. it's about keeping your personality as the right. knowing who you really are. both storm wake only watches this, knowing that you're someone bought that you can do something. but what produce something at that was she was on the last a fashion studio under the roof of the berlin city mission marsh. i said, 12 knows her host. i'm motivated by spirituality and want to provide pastoral care . this may be important to others, she says, but not for her work linea, near,

near thorazine, cyclical. it doesn't matter to me what religion it is your choice. if i feel and in the need to go to church and i'm in another country, i go to the local church and the story with a clear conscience. so i thought i'm open about it. he up to me, it's like withdrawing money from another banks, atm bunco op. in other words, it's all the same account. yeah. do more than they, they thought the church of saint simian in berlin's quotes for a district. the cities refugee church, past the con has invited mostly refugees, mostly ukrainians, to a special service. oh, a flag her that's most delicious. it's been to tag fun. i am really excited quite a few have registered if most damage may i mention al, from it in the gift the horn dig, assist a year for christie be died. i want to introduce people to the story. for me,

the story of jesus christ rounds. god is in people hazel's crystals. well, you don't necessarily need jesus christ to understand that his kite and not everybody here does. it's a marker on, but it's one possibility. and i want to reflect and consider this thought that god became human and that god is still in humans to day on that. i'm firmly convinced that when i meet god, i also meet him and people in mother mental bigness can now does port the left out moment, axel refugees were accommodated in this church temporarily simply to give them a roof over their heads. 20 captain does not. now they've moved on and found apartments, but they're happy to return and to day, this is special supper. ah

. the 1st surprise, the music is provided by a couple, one russian, the other ukranian. ah, if i am, lisa smiled a 3 m that we celebrate this meal of peace and the name of abraham sarah and hagar doesn't embed makin visible the name on for a day to hand when we pray. we do it like this. we take our right hand on the leg then, and put the thumb of this right hand in the left hand and hold it close to the heart . and we pray in silence for the people who are there in our hearts em cindy, our friends, our family, i'm happy everybody we love. and so for me live i live deville even.

doesn't that very simple recall board time celebrating the lord suffer with predominantly orthodox christians is not a problem for lutherans. back of the dean and stayed out in tifton. the believe is denomination is irrelevant. old baptized christians may receive holy communion with wives. oh, how of our past to con has something else up her sleeve on flat by years of nathaniel, cancel them and had they fled, let him when jesus was with his disciples van and he suddenly knelt down to wash their feet of that we'll do that afterwards. al from it, i've got a tub here and i've got towels and i've brought the best baby shampoo we had at home and i'd be very happy if as many of you as possible would let me wash your feet to lay this one mad. a fuser vatton laughed and hide the thought of the past to washing their feet doesn't sit well with the ukrainian refugees. and that's precisely the idea. jesus wanted to show his amazed disciples that serving people

is the most important thing. even in performing a menial task, i would call it an it's chris c though. did it to his disciples. he was the teacher and he did it with us. didn't saw it like changing the role for pastor con, meeting refugees who want nothing more than to return home is a new experience. does have a soul of me. i lived the sort of ethic me m lag name. i've never experienced anything like this before to resign. like best and say, now we can't go back now and actually we're looking for a long term solution gift, but i hope the refugees don't remain strangers for long. as i hope the issue of

diversity becomes more prominent in the church. and that we realize we're a church of immigrants and a society of immigrants and when crops were also a society of migrants economic, maybe we ourselves need to see more clearly what a privileged as not to have to migrate. turn privilege. as in sam leon nif mickey and some listen ah, in spite of their initial doubts, the refugees a deeply moved. ah, yes, you have seen a good enough for anybody. thank you for great support that we didn't expect to receive so much help in our difficult situation. with a story douglas, harvey and albany or that people here were so warm hearted at the national. do you

got them? good. mm hm. thank you so much about your money. you know here. so when we arrived in germany and took our 1st step into this church, we felt at her, his unusually bog won't get to my. ready ah ah ah, the kinds of vill hm. memorial church on berlin's christmas, and don boulevard here every night since the beginning of the russian invasion.

there are prayers for peace and a short sermon to day. an appropriate story from the bible. it's about the people of nineveh, who abandoned their old like to save themselves from destruction and to bring the rulers to their senses. and i'd stop for the clinics, navy com stunt alfonze. i'm torn click because i'm poor poor up. when jim is warning, reach the king of nineveh, he rose from his throne, took off his royal ropes, covered himself with sackcloth, and sat down in the dust. this is the proclamation he is to you to maneuver and let them give out the evil ways and their violence. who know like god may yet relent. months to the people. if they never show that to change, you have to leave, you'll come down and, and then the rulers will also be comfortable about changing it. and this is how

a free society, a democracy work kind of, there is no up there. there is only us view and we don't wait for orders from 100. we act 100. confronted with the crises and conflicts of our time. so we all need to change it's we who must repent on v as into the own. can this prayer or practical help intercession or shelter food and drink which is more important. but with school, when it was wonderful, i would reply with the saying by detroit, bonham, for that it's about banks give us about praying and doing what is just my foolish go. that's have one, have to put it on and on. but it means of course, that you both are dependent on each other. only praying is just as problematic as only acting undoing. think it is. i'd say that both these aspects are very

important. and of course, the desire for justice has been a very profound a biblical based wish. the thousands of years told. the hebrew prophets speak of it again and again, my view of it. so prayer and action belong very closely together, comes into some blue . ah ah, with
