Lift Up Pastors and Churches

As you pray for specific requests submitted by SGA-supported pastors below, please pray for God’s provision, protection, and encouragement for these faithful servants and their congregations.

Please pray for Pastor Valentin and his church in Ukraine as they continue to provide humanitarian aid and share the Gospel with families who have lost so much. Ask God to comfort grieving hearts, to continuing providing relief for those in desperate need, and to draw many to faith through this ministry of compassion.

I Will Pray For This

Pray for Pastors Dima and Vlad, and for all SGA-supported pastors serving in Ukraine’s frontline regions. Ask God to: protect them and their families from danger, strengthen their faith as they minister in exhaustion and uncertainty, provide ongoing resources—food, power, and Scripture—and use their witness to bring many to saving faith in Christ.

I Will Pray For This

Pray for Natasha’s continued safety and for the many families in Ukraine who live daily under the threat of war. Lift up Vlad and Zhanna as this husband and wife minister tirelessly to those in need. Ask God to renew their strength, protect their growing family, and provide the resources they need to continue their vital work for the Lord. May every person who comes through their doors encounter the peace and hope of Christ.

Please pray for Pastor Artem and other faithful leaders in Ukraine who have chosen to stay and shepherd their communities through war. Ask God to protect them, strengthen their faith, and continue bringing many to salvation through their witness.

I Will Pray For This

Please pray for the many children and families reached through SGA-supported Immanuel’s Child outreach. Ask the Lord to water the seeds planted through these Gospel outreaches and raise up a new generation of believers in the former Soviet Union. May many more come to know Jesus as Savior and Lord!

I Will Pray For This

Please pray for Olga, Matvey, and the many other children touched by SGA-supported Immanuel’s Child  outreaches at Christmas and Easter. Ask God to grow their faith, draw their families to Christ, and raise up a new generation of believers across Ukraine and the former Soviet nations.

I Will Pray For This

Please pray for Pastor Steve Wong and other instructors as they train future ministry leaders in Ukraine. Ask God to strengthen each student, that they would be rooted in truth and bold in faith as they step into Gospel ministry during these difficult days.

I Will Pray For This

Please pray for the 80 new graduates of Irpen Biblical Seminary—that God would protect and empower them as they step into ministry across Ukraine and beyond. Pray also for seminary president Mykola Romanyuk and the growing student body as they train to shepherd a church in deep need.

I Will Pray For This

Please pray for Pastor Ruslan and his wife in war-torn Ukraine as they courageously remain to share the hope of Christ. After surviving a near-fatal drone strike, they’re more committed than ever to preaching the Gospel. Ask God to protect them, comfort their hearts, and give them strength. Pray also for peace in Ukraine and for all who still suffer daily loss and fear.

Pray for Ukraine

War is now raging between Russia and Ukraine. In Ukraine, fathers, husbands, brothers, sons… all men must stay behind to defend their country. And the women, children, and elderly who can escape are fleeing with almost nothing! But getting stuck on roadsides, and with infrastructure damaged or over-used – and even dangerous shelling – they risk death. If they survive the harrowing journey to safety, they must then find shelter. But churches, civic centers, and homes are filling up quickly. Those who stay in Ukraine will surely suffer the most, and the impact on children will be unthinkable. Ukrainians need our urgent, intercessory prayers, and our physical help.
