Greetings, friends, Ukraine is on the line!

Thank God we have completed the mission tour in the Kirovohrad region. We are grateful to God that He helped us conduct children’s evangelization!

More than 1500 children heard the Gospel! Each child received a beautiful book called “Prayers” as a gift. The children were overwhelmed with emotions because, apart from air raid alerts and flying Shaheds, they hear nothing else. Slides, trampolines, floorball, treats, and counselors – this is our Happy Time in action!

But the main thing on the playgrounds is the animated story, where children learn about the Bible and important truths! We heard many stories from the children because there are many displaced people in our region.
Children from Kherson told how they survived the occupation, from Donetsk region – how they escaped the shelling, children from Zaporizhzhia direction – under constant shelling; these wounds in their souls will take a long time to heal.

Therefore, the task of the counselors was not only to guide the children through the stations but also to talk to them, comfort them, and touch their hearts.

Every day on the playground, prayers were offered, and pastors were invited to pray for the children and adults. In our team, we had a volunteer, Arthur, who is an active serviceman. He went through Bakhmut and Maryinka, and after being wounded, he was given leave, but instead of resting, he went to serve the children.

His testimony touched both children and adults because almost every family has someone at war. On the playground, there was an art workshop where children made crafts, learned biblical truths, and memorized a golden verse.

We are very grateful to everyone who helped make this playground bring joy to Ukrainian children!
