Help share food, clothing, and other critical supplies along with the life-changing Gospel.
People in various parts of the former Soviet Union have been living in trauma. Children and youth are thrown into situations they may find impossible to understand, while their parents struggle to make sense out of conflict that is increasingly hard to explain or endure. Only the God of the Bible can bring peace and hope through the saving grace of Jesus Christ and the life-changing work of the Holy Spirit. Your gifts in support of SGA ministry to people in crisis is used to help bring hope and peace from God.
Though his church is located on the front line in Ukraine, Pastor Dmytro is pressing on to follow God’s leading to expand their facilities and grow the congregation. “We don’t need to wait for favorable times,” Dmytro explains. “We need to do God’s work here and now.” Please pray for this church, for their safety and hope for the future, and for the opportunity to continue witnessing to people about Jesus Christ.
Help the Hurting
The wounds of conflict run deep. Body and soul feel the impact and pain that only God can truly heal. Your support of the Crisis Evangelism Fund meets deep human needs in Jesus’ name.
When SGA began seeking support for our Crisis Evangelism Fund, the violence in Ukraine was only just beginning. Thanks to you, our partners, we were quickly able to begin equipping the evangelical churches with emergency funds to provide food parcels and other assistance to refugees from eastern Ukraine and the Crimea region.
As time went on and the fighting continued unabated in the east, SGA staff and UECB church leaders discreetly toured the combat zones to assess the local needs of SGA-sponsored missionary pastors and their congregations. The pastors and their families had significant needs themselves. But the opportunity for Gospel ministry had been granted by the Lord. Faithfully, they have seized it by taking the love of Christ to unbelieving families whose lives had been shattered.
