Rivne, Ukraine
Pastor Andriy leads Grace Baptist Church in Riven. This is a young and very active church. Each year they have many projects for young people, including summer camps for children, teenagers and youth. They also have a rehab ministry for drug and alcohol addicts. Their purpose is to bring people to Christ and help them to become members of His family, develop their maturity in Christ so that they could fulfill their destined purpose in this world for the glory of God's name. Their main efforts are aimed at people as they have an eternal value.
A country riddled with war and crisis, yet full of promise. Communities and homes are heavily impacted by the number of orphans and abandoned children. Addictions to alcohol and drugs have become one of the major causes of broken families, leading to low income and high levels of poverty in Ukraine. Abuse is rampant and often a normal reality. Even in times of crisis and war, God is multiplying His church in Ukraine. God’s love for the orphans and His love for the people of Ukraine is so evident and it is expressed through the efforts of the local church. God is renaming this nation as special, valuable, powerful, and free.
