Ralph Stocks is a retired missionary to Hungary and Romania. For nearly 25 years, Ralph and his wife Tammy were missionaries with the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship (CBF), so our tithes and offerings were able to support them in their work. But before he served in Eastern Europe, Ralph was also a part of our church!
Tammy & Ralph Stocks
Sensing a new call to serve after Russia invaded Ukraine, Ralph reached out to the folks at Project Ruth, a CBF missionary-run school in Romania, who were already helping refugees from the Ukraine-Romania border get to safety, medical care, and food. Knowing he could really make a difference in their work, Ralph flew to Romania to help. He sat down for an interview to talk about what he is seeing, hearing, and experiencing as he works with people on the Romania-Ukraine border. Listen to Ralph's interview here.
One of the special things that Project Ruth is doing to help Ukrainian families is assembling and distributing food care boxes. Each box contains enough food to feed a family of four for seven days. You can learn about what’s packed in them here, which even includes devotionals in Ukrainian for much-needed encouragement. The cost to pack and transport one of the Food Care Boxes is $44. Anyone can donate money online to help provide them for Ukrainian families by supporting Project Ruth’s food box program here.
