UKRAINIAN MISSIONARIES IN CRISIS
How, then, can people call on someone they have not believed? And how can they believe in someone they have not heard about? And how can they hear without someone preaching? And how can people preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are those who bring the good news!” -Romans 10:14-15
Today is a sad time in Ukraine where we see how political upheaval and war can do to a nation. However, we have a God who is all-knowing and sovereign. The missionaries in Ukraine comfort each other with the knowledge that God is still in control.
Our weapons as Christians include fasting and prayer, which many of you are doing already. Please be steadfast in your support of the missionaries in Ukraine and show your love to them in this time of tribulation. We ask that give special support for the care of over 1500 refugees that are being hosted by our Ukrainian missionaries. May God use this as an opportunity for the refugees who are not believers to hear the gospel!

The PIEI ministry in Ukraine started as an extension of the national ministry in Romania. After World War II many Romanian people who lived in the Northern Bucovina Region (Chernivtsi) were displaced and many Russian and Ukrainian people moved in, creating a unique blend of all three nationalities in the region to this day: Ukrainians, Russians, and Romanians who have lived together for almost seventy years.
With the helping hand of faithful partners in the U.S.A. there have been many churches planted and built and many people reached with the Gospel of Christ. The majority of the national missionaries and their families are multilingual, fluently speaking the Ukrainian, Russian, and Romanian languages, enabling them to reach all the people - regardless of their language and nationality - for Christ, as well as training leaders to reach other parts of the country and the Russian speaking world. Children and youth ministries are the top two avenues for outreach and evangelism in Ukraine. The summer camps in particular have been very fruitful, with many young people coming to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ every year.
