Mission in the Ukraine

Since the outbreak of the war in the Ukraine in February 2022, the Church of Glory and “Hope for the Future” Foundation have supported the war casualties, including churches in the Ukraine, as well as the Ukrainian refugees in Poland.

How have we helped?

Our leaders and volunteers of Polish and Ukrainian descent have intensively strived to help the Ukrainians. We have focused on three strategic endeavors:
• financial and material support for local churches in the Ukraine,
• material and spiritual help for the incoming refugees,
• evangelistic outreaches in Warsaw and in the area close to the Ukrainian border; printing and distribution of evangelistic materials in the Ukrainian language.

What have we accomplished in 2022 and 2023?

In march and at the beginning of April, we made several evangelistic trips to Przemyśl near the Ukrainian border. We passed out hot meals, including soup, snacks and hot drinks. We preached the Good News and prayed for many people. We helped several Ukrainian families find transportation and accommodation in Poland. We also transferred financial support for feeding the refugees that stayed with Polish families.

We organized several convoys of humanitarian help worth over 20 000 PLN. We purchased dozens of kilograms of flour, sugar, noodle, coffee, tea, candies, canned food, as well as hygiene and medical supplies, and transported it to the border where it was received by people from Ukrainian churches (from Kyiv and Rivne, among others).

Besides, we supported financially churches in Western Ukraine (Rivne, Ternopil, and Lviv) in their help for the refugees from Eastern Ukraine.
We sent two pallets of medicine to Rivne in Western Ukraine to meet current needs of soldiers.

We bought and sent medical dressings, bulletproof vests, night-vision camera, pharmaceuticals, antibiotics, and special first-aid kit for soldiers. We also transferred financial support. For this purpose we assigned 10 000 PLN.

We bought pickaxes, shovels and axes to help bring people out form construction rubble. We received form sponsors hundreds of socks, knee pads and thermoactive underwear for soldiers in the trenches in the Rivne region. We also bought different kinds of supplies for 400 soldiers: tents, cosmetic and hygiene products, men’s underwear, caps, long shelf life food, extension cords, electric generators, and headlamps.

A group of our volunteers who could speak both Polish and Ukrainian, operated in two centers for refugees: a relocation center in Ożarów Mazowiecki, and a private hostel in Lesznowola. They worked as interpreters, transported the gifts we bought, and sought other sponsors.

We prepared an all-day outing for 20 children and their mothers to a playground with a climbing wall and entertainers to help them cope with long-time stress and trauma. At the end of this fun-filled day we took them all to a fast-food restaurant so that the smiles on the children’s faces might be even bigger.

Thanks to individual donators, we gave out 109 schoolbags and 29 pencil cases to children who started school.

We received 20 computers for orphanages in the Ukraine to enable the children to participate in online education. The equipment will be sent to four orphanages: in Drohobych, Stryi and Lviv.

We covered the costs of a summer camp for a group of youth from one of the churches in Ternopil. In cooperation with Benny Hinn Ministries, we have regularly sent food and medicine to the Ukrainian border.
W co-sponsored a youth camp for the children of refugees from Northern Ukraine organized by a befriended church in Ternopil.

Many pastors from the Ukraine visited our conferences for pastors and leaders, and we covered the costs of their stay in Poland. We prayed unitedly for the future of the Ukraine, for God’s solutions and intervention in the land.
