HOSTOMEL CHURCH PLANT

The Bucha Region of Ukraine has been devastated, with hundreds of lives lost and thousands of homes destroyed as a result of Russian attacks. The region was liberated at the end of March 2022, and many volunteers began comforting and serving the community.

This is the story of how a small church in Kyiv stepped out in faith to serve the needs around them and brought hope by helping one family at a time. As of February 2025, they have placed 328 Homes of Hope and constructed a new building to be used as a warming shelter and place of worship for the new church. 

 

We are currently trying to raise $50,000 to help complete the construction of the new church building.

 

AS OF February 24, 2025, WE HAVE RAISED OVER $30,000 FOR THIS CURRENT PROJECT!

IN SLOVAKIA


As millions of refugees fled Ukraine, churches and pastors throughout Europe are faced with the same questions:

  • What will our response be?

  • How can we be involved?

  • How do we lead our churches to be a faithful witness through the crisis?

Here are stories from four different Slovak churches on how they navigated this sudden crisis:
