In the midst of Ukraine’s ongoing struggle, a beautiful story of hope and solidarity has emerged through the Sister Church Association. Our hearts are filled with gratitude for the churches that have stepped forward to support their Ukrainian brothers and sisters during these challenging times. While war has scattered many congregations – with members serving on the frontlines or seeking refuge abroad – these partnerships have become lifelines for communities in crisis.
Take Father’s Church in Dnipro, where the sound of missile attacks has become an unwelcome weekly rhythm. Despite living under the constant shadow of conflict, this resilient congregation has transformed into a beacon of hope for internally displaced children, thanks to their partnership with the International Church of Leiden. For two and a half years, this Dutch congregation has faithfully stood by their Ukrainian family, enabling them to extend Christ’s love through simple yet profound gestures like providing Christmas gifts to children who have lost so much.
Today, we invite you to join this remarkable journey of faith and fellowship. Imagine the impact your church could have by investing $375 monthly for six months – a commitment that goes far beyond financial support. It’s about standing with pastors who, without this aid, would be forced to divide their time between secular work and ministry when their communities need their spiritual guidance most desperately.
These partnerships weave together the fabric of our global Christian family, creating bonds that transcend borders and language barriers. Your church’s participation could be the answer to another congregation’s prayers, bringing hope to a community living in the shadow of war. Consider becoming a Sister Church today – together, we can ensure that no Ukrainian church stands alone in these troubled times.
Let’s continue this beautiful testimony of Christ’s love in action. Visit our Transform Ukraine website to learn how your church can embrace a Ukrainian congregation and become part of this transformative ministry.
