on Friday, I sadly received this message from a courageous friend in Ukraine: ``Dear brother Joe, today our hearts are heavy. Just a few hours ago, Russian troops struck a Baptist church in Zaporizhzhia. This was not just a building. It was a beautiful house of prayer that believers built over many years, sacrificing their own finances and strength. For more than 300 people, it became a spiritual home, a place of worship, fellowship, and family. ``Now it lies in ruins. ``We already know of at least five victims, including one minister Ruslan Utyuzh who was inside the church at the moment of the strike. . . . ``Please stand with us in prayer and action. This must be stopped.'' In conclusion, God bless our troops as the global war on terrorism continues. Trump is continuing to reinstitute peace through strength, revealing war criminal Putin lies, insulting and mocking Trump with war criminal Putin bombing churches to intimidate Ukrainians, but war criminal Putin is a loser as Ukrainians will achieve victory. I congratulate Congressman Neal Dunn on the birth of a granddaughter an hour ago, Nora Amelia Dunn. Grateful parents are David and Isabel Dunn of Phoenix, Arizona.
