Religious freedom is more than just the right to worship: Religions generally encourage compassion, especially when calamity hits. Faith-based organizations are also often able to respond to crises faster than governments. In times of peace and conflict, those who enjoy religious freedom bear a significant responsibility.

The Church and similar faith-based organizations play a critical role in offering aid, healing, restoration, and reconciliation to those who suffer.

—And they need religious freedom to operate effectively.

LYNC utilizes its cause for religious freedom to build a bridge to assist the marginalized—whether it be religious minorities, those in immediate danger, or those still suffering from the invisible wounds of war.

LYNC's Presence in Ukraine (2023)

LYNC first answered the call in Bautzen, Germany when we took 1,800 refugees under our care. In 2023, despite the risks, we chose to cross Ukraine's borders and work in-country to Ukraine's suffering people. It has been important that LYNC not only reach out to help but also maintain a consistent, present, and comforting presence in Ukraine. Whether through critical aid and care, trauma therapy, bringing gifts to children for Christmas, or simply sitting with and comforting the silently suffering, LYNC will be there.
