Thank to God for the opportunity to travel with the team to the East of Ukraine to serve children from the occupied territories (Avdeevka, Makiyivka, Druzhkovka, Slavyansk, Kramatorsk, Artemovsk).
In the camp were 75 children aged 13-17 years old. These are the children, who survived the war, and they are very open to the Word of God and appreciate that, they are still alive. We’ve studied the course “How to make the right choice, about what you won’t regret.” Despite of their age, they have made a lot of bad decisions in their life. But at the end of the camp 10 people have decided to follow Christ. Guys with a great desire were studying the Scriptures and say that this is what they lacked. They were comforted by the Word and they want to go on to study it, want to build a relationship with us, to make friends and socialize. I believe that God will continue His work both, with us and with them.
Our team is consisted of 8 people from Lutsk city. We have really fallen in love with these kids, and we want to continue to work on the East, and in the nearest time we are planning to take a trip there again. Our goal is – to raise a new, young generation that will serve to the entire eastern Ukraine. We would like to hold several workshops, play a floorball, just to spend time together. They really do not have enough of that.
The greatest need on the East – is the mature Christians, who know the Word of God, and understand how to convey it.
We pray that there was the institution because several people are eager to learn… Please pray about the ministry on the East of Ukraine…
Anton Timonishin, Lutsk city
