November 2013 to February 2014
Protests
– and in response, torture
Monday Feb 17
to Wednesday Feb 19
Crackdown sharpens
Thursday, February 20
Government snipers murder
60 people
…things are about to explode
…things are about to explode
• President fires the head of police – apparently too soft
• Protesters prepare for a battle
…and…before dawn…
Before dawn there was
A coup:
The sounds of the Easter song:
“Christ has risen”
“Christ has risen from the dead …”
“Trampling over death by death”
“And upon those in the grave…
“…bestowing life”
And the people
– on both sides –
stepped back from fear.
The people came together.
The powers saw that fear had died.
That is a genuine coup.
Few noticed that this
Was the key moment.
The kingdom of heaven is like yeast
…it is unseen, but it changes everything.
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
It is spreading all over.
Ukrainian citizens are standing. For peace.
March 1, 2014. In
Balaklava(Sevasto
pol) residents
formed a human
shield and stood
between
presumed Russian
soldiers and
Ukrainian border-
control troops
during a Russian
attempted
seizure.
02.03.2014г. Russian special forces tried to seize weapons from the
191st cadet brigade
After finding their truck blocked by apparently unarmed
Ukrainian officers, some of the Russians said, “Forgive us, we don’t
want war, but we got an order.”
