Mariupol, Ukraine – Andriy Voytsekhovskyy held back tears, praying for Ukraine and singing hymns with a small and emotional congregation in a subterranean church as fighting raged nearby.
In a quiet suburb of Mariupol, eastern Ukraine, the church is almost invisible from the street as it sits in the foundations of a building that was never completed. It’s unusual for two reasons – it is underground, and it is Evangelical in a country where most Christians are Orthodox.
