In this episode, Mike continues his interview with Ira Kapitonova, a former foreign exchange student that was a part of the Picconatto's church in Minnesota.
Ira, her husband, and their son are from Kyiv and continue to remain in Ukraine during the war.
Today's episode was recorded on April 1, before the massacre in Bucha, the suspected chemical attack on Mariupol, and many of the other tragedies being discovered as the Russians continue their attack. The episode is a continuation of Episode 36.
Ira shares what is protecting her heart from hate, important prayer requests, and ways people can be involved in supporting people in Ukraine.
