Without friends like you, many of our brothers and sisters in Christ in Ukraine would very likely not be able to survive during the current harsh winter months. But through your generosity toward SGA’s Ukraine Winter Heat & Hope Campaign, the power of a generator is bringing electricity to SGA-supported pastors across the war-torn country — including Pastor Sergei.

Here is a short video of thanks he recently sent. Please read the translated words from his grateful heart as you watch . . . 

Greetings in Jesus’ Name!

I would like to thank SGA and sponsors for the generator, provided for the needs of the church ministry. This is a great blessing for our churches. 

Every time I start it, I thank my God for all of you. After receiving the generator, we are able to gather for church worship whenever we want and not to adjust to the power outage schedules. The generator works very nice and quietly. 

The electricity in our region is often turned off for a long time. Now we have the ability to connect lighting, music equipment, and most importantly, heaters! Church members also have the opportunity to come and recharge their cell phones. 

We have plans to use the generator in youth and family camps in the summertime. It is very timely and very gratifying to take care of the needs of local churches in this difficult time. May the Lord bless you abundantly! 

In a time of great uncertainty, God is bringing help, healing, and hope to the people of Ukraine through SGA-supported pastors, churches, a seminary, and SGA-sponsored Compassion Ministry. Be a part of God’s incredible work with your generosity and prayer support.  

Your gift of compassion helps struggling people with emergency aid that generally includes Scripture materials, food, medicine, warm clothing, and shoes.
