In May, in Kramatorsk, Donetsk region, classes under the program “Children are War. Teaching Recovering Techniques” were held for the children of the local church. The Salvation Foundation, organized by this church, sent Natalia Rostovskaya and Elena Ivanova to train its employees so that they could help children and adults within the framework of their foundation’s social programs. The first group for young coaches gathered an unusual – uneven age group: 16-year-old boys and 8-year-old girls sat in the same circle. Nevertheless, everyone found something supporting and life-affirming for themselves. It is interesting how organically the presence of God was “intertwined” in the work on the traumatic events of the past in the lives of these children. For example, working with the technique of positive “I-affirmations”, they noted: “With God I can overcome everything”, “With God I am safe”, “I pray and hold on!”. They also began each session with a prayer for the healing of each participant. And so be it! We sincerely wish you a peaceful sky over your head and healing peace in your hearts and souls!
