Urgent Prayer Needs:

Please pray with us for SGA-supported Pastor Sergei’s granddaughter Marina who was badly injured in a mortar fire attack. Also, join us in lifting up Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky who heard Marina was praying for him and was encouraged by her strong faith. May the president and all of those impacted by the war come to know Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord and be strengthened in Him.
Praise God with us that Irpin Biblical Seminary classes have started this month for the fall semester! Though the enemy attacked and shelled all five buildings earlier this year during the war — badly damaging the second-floor classrooms and the kitchen — the school never closed.
Pray for SGA-supported Pastor Oleg and his team who are serving many families in need as the war continues in Ukraine. He is grateful for the groceries and hygiene goods provide by the generous support of friends like you. This emergency aid is helping to open doors to sharing the Gospel with IDPs and residents where he lives!
Praise Report: Two SGA-supported pastors recently expressed how grateful they are for you — and the emergency supplies including food and hygiene supplies you have helped to provide in Ukraine. Many people have received aid, repented, and are now going to Bible study!
Please pray that as humanitarian aid is distributed throughout Ukraine from SGA-sponsored churches, more people will open their hearts to the Gospel. Pray that just as they hunger for food, their souls will hunger to be filled with the Good News found in Jesus Christ!
Pray for these recent graduates of Irpen Seminary! Please pray that as they go forth into suffering Ukraine, God will be with them to encourage them and bless their ministries in a hurting world.
Thank you so much for your prayers! Please pray for Israeli pastors, churches, and community members as they discern how to best minister to Ukrainian refugees. Pray that resources, aid, and volunteers will be provided to support them in their mission to touch as many souls as possible in the name of Jesus.
Please pray hearts will be open with the aid distribution in Ukraine, and that more people will come to know Christ during this time of great suffering. You can also pray for ministers in Poland who are working around the clock to continue helping refugees, displaced people, and all involved in the conflict of war in Ukraine.

The Gospel in Life

From our founding in 1934 through today, SGA has been working with churches in Russia, the former Soviet countries of Eastern Europe, and Central Asia to share the Gospel, help train leaders for the church, and to help the hurting and forgotten in the name of Jesus.

Sharing the Gospel

SGA connects North American Christians — like you — with individual Russian church-planting missionaries, and helps to send them out to live, work, and proclaim the Gospel. You can have an exciting part in this life-changing fulfillment of the Great Commission!

Helping the Forgotten

Across the lands of Russia, more than 700,000 children living in state-run orphanages or children’s homes. Their physical and spiritual needs are enormous. Most of these kids will never be adopted into a loving family. Without Christ, they face a dismal future.
