We rejoice in sharing the incredible work God is doing through the Church of Jesus Christ in Uzhhorod, Ukraine! This vibrant congregation continues to be a cornerstone of our Transform Uzhhorod Alliance, particularly through their dedicated ministry to the Rroma community under the leadership of Pastor Viktor Fontosh. The recently established Rroma Social Life Center represents a tangible expression of Christ’s love, meeting both spiritual and practical needs in this underserved community.
Through God’s provision through Transform Ukraine, we were able to install a playground that serves both the community and the center’s pre-school and elementary school programs. This development has brought joy and hope to many Rroma children and families. Now, we are stepping out in faith toward the next phase: constructing the main building’s foundation. This crucial structure will house multiple community services, including a relationship-building café, essential facilities like showers and laundry services for families without running water, a hair salon, a gymnasium for young men, and additional classrooms. We are trusting God for the $6,000 needed to complete this foundation and continue demonstrating His love in practical ways.
In these challenging times of war, we praise God for the faithful partnership of Dungeness Community Church in Sequim, Washington. Through our Sister Church Association, this congregation has committed to supporting Pastor Viktor’s salary, enabling him to maintain his full-time focus on ministry despite half of his church members being displaced by war. This partnership exemplifies the global body of Christ working together to sustain vital ministry during crisis.
We celebrate God’s faithfulness as the church continues to serve impoverished families through food distribution. Most importantly, we rejoice that in November, three precious souls made decisions to follow Jesus! These testimonies of transformation remind us that even in times of war and hardship, God’s Kingdom continues to advance through the faithful witness of His people.
