Hope beyond the headlines

UKRAINE

The war in Ukraine has brought immense suffering to ordinary people. Yet, in the midst of this devastation, God’s people have selflessly served—meeting urgent needs and sharing the hope of the Gospel, often at great personal risk. SGA(UK), alongside churches and believers across the British Isles, has faithfully partnered in this mission, witnessing lives transformed and the Gospel advance in these difficult days.

FULFILLING OUR MISSION AMIDST WAR

By Igor Bandura

Daily, believers in Ukraine carry out their mission despite the ongoing war. They express heartfelt gratitude to all the workers and partners of SGA(UK), who faithfully and consistently support Christians in Ukraine to reach more and more people for Christ.

Widows and Orphans

Since the war began, widows and orphans have multiplied across Ukraine. Local churches are caring for them, and your donations are blessing families who have taken children in.

Children’s Camps

Christian camps offer comfort and renewal to children in crisis. With
3 million displaced and over 1.5 million facing mental health struggles, these camps are a lifeline—and the need keeps growing.

CHURCH PLANTING

Missionaries are planting churches near the frontlines, facing danger, exhaustion, and limited support. To keep this work going, they need training, funding, and encouragement.

Humanitarian Aid

Through partnerships, Ukrainian churches have evacuated, fed, and cared for millions of needy people.

PARTNERING TO PLANT

A vital and practical need in Ukraine is financial support for church planters who are bringing the hope of the Gospel to their people. Below is a small selection of men and ministries currently in need of partners to continue their crucial work.

Mychaylo Tsetsorka

In 2023, Mychaylo began a home group after building relationships through visits to a secular rehabilitation centre. That group has since grown into a small but thriving church, made up of many first-generation believers.

Mykola Korolkov

Mykola planted the first evangelical church in Novyi Bykiv. He visited the town after it was liberated from Russian occupation, bringing both practical aid and Gospel truth. God has blessed his ministry and now new believers worship together.

Yuri Leshchenko

Yuri is an experienced church planter who was forced to relocate due to the war and Russian occupation. He is now planting a new church in Perechyn, a town in another region with no previous evangelical witness.

Mykola Syrovatko

Formerly in the army, Mykola was discharged by a colonel who told him he was now free to serve his ‘King’. He is currently working to plant a church in the village of Kurylivka, an area where there are no other evangelical churches.
