The Ukraine

While teaching on the Ukraine this month I will be mostly focusing on the mission of World Hope Canada and World Hope Ukraine to rescue the thousands of homeless children living on the streets of Ukrainian cities. You can find more information under the Prayer Focus/Missionary section of this post.

Prayer Focus/ Missionaries

There are thousands of homeless children living on the streets in Ukraine who are hungry, scared and lonely. They struggle with alcoholism, drug and sexual abuse and rejection from their families and the rest of society. Thankfully, World Hope Canada/ World Hope Ukraine has gotten involved and is working to rescue as many of these kids as possible. You can read more about their efforts here and you'll also want to check out this and this video. (I didn't watch these with my kids but they helped me understand more so that I could talk to them about what's going on and how we can pray.)
