LINCOLN- State Senator Tom Brewer is headed back to the front lines of the war in Ukraine.
“You can either sit on the sidelines and watch history go by or dive in and try to make a difference,” said State Sen. Tom Brewer of Gordon, a decorated military veteran, who represents Nebraska’s Sandhills in the State Legislature.
Brewer, 64, will return to Ukraine on Oct. 14, just after undergoing another chemotherapy treatment for an ongoing bout with leukemia.
Sen. Brewer is no stranger to Ukraine, he spent a month in Ukraine this summer touring the country and aiding those in need.
But this time, his mission will be to deliver electronic Bibles to Ukrainian soldiers and chaplains through a Kyiv-based Christian outreach group, Young With a Mission. He said he has also been asked, because of his military experience, to help evacuate some elderly people in “no-man’s land” between the Ukrainian and Russian lines.
The mission group is funding the bibles, Sen. Brewer is funding his travel expenses. Sen. Brewer will visit the front of the battle lines, and will spend time near the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant in southeast Ukraine, which the Russians have occupied since March and where fighting has been fierce in recent weeks.
