Hi Friends of Ukraine!
First of all, thank YOU for your past and present help of the people of Ukraine. Because of your consistent help monthly or your tax-deductible one-time gift - we’ve been able to continue to house and help Ukrainian missionaries (they refuse to be called refugees!) living outside of Ukraine as well as the all important help you’ve given to help those on our teams in Ukraine that are on the Gospel frontlines in Ukraine.
Among our teams that are very active in Lviv, Kyiv, Odesa, Cherkasy and the east, we have a new team working with youth impacted by the war in a small town south of Kyiv. Validate, from our team in Kyiv with her husband and team serve and minister to these kids and teens to provide them the joy and hope of the Gospel that heals and encourages these kids who have lost loved ones tragically in the war. They function solely on the charitable gifts of people such as yourselves that thank you!
Here are a couple of shots of our team in Kyiv that is on the street ministering to people, many of whom have no power or water.
Two other ladies, Albina and Iryna serve in and outside of Ukraine with teachers and staff serving Ukrainian refugees in Wrocław, Poland. They have beautiful stories of comforting and serving broken people and kids streaming in from the carnage of eastern Ukraine. Please be praying for them, as they daily meet with these precious people.
One of our Ukrainian pastors, P. Sasha Pavlenko- who pastors in Cherkasy, and served on the frontline as a soldier near Kharkiv, now runs a Boxing Club outreach for kids in his city and some kids who are refugees. This outreach is a Christ-centered, Gospel-centered training of these kids who in some cases are not in school due to school closures across Ukraine. He all overseas a refugee hotel for up to 30 families at a time. Right now we are looking for monthly donors to his ministry that is directly impacting kids hit by the war in Ukraine.
I want to bring your attention to an immediate need for you to pray over and help if you can. One of our team members Pastor Vladislav Medykovski) in the western city of Lviv, had a heart attack this weekend. We led him to Christ years ago and he has pastored in Lviv with P. Mihailo Hrischenko. He had an emergency heart surgery and had stents put in. He is in the hospital and is expected to recover 100%. He has a hospital bill remaining of $700. I ask you to pray and partner with us to help bless his wife and kids by paying this for them. Please donate below.
Gosia and i are so thankful for your partnership as we together reach Ukraine for Christ, especially during these very hard times yet very fertile for the gospel!
Prayerfully,
Christian & Gosia Moore
