Dear Hope Now,
Thanks be to God for your dedication and for your ministry in Ukraine. Today’s world needs to be witnessed to about God as never before. From one side Hope Now cares for children and helps them to find a way to God - from the other side Hope Now is a good example for Christians, and helps them to grow in ministry and life.

We are Christians from Lesky village and we have a request. The church was started 90 years ago. Christians, from the nearby village of Sagunivka, spread the Gospel among the villagers. The church went through times of persecution, suffering and oppression, freedom and now more temptation. In spite of difficult conditions of life, the Holy Spirit helped Christians to hold on to the path of God.

God blessed us with a House of Prayer, but the heating system in the church is very old and needs to be replaced. The church members can do the work but the cost of a boiler and all the heating material is about £1,500.  We would be very grateful if someone can make it possible for us.

We pray for your ministry in Ukraine

May God richly bless you.
Lesky church

Lesky is a typical village church in the Cherkassy region which we would like to try and help. May I ask for your prayers for this small congregation as they struggle to grow, and if you feel it appropriate, any gifts to help them clearly marked “Lesky”.

A Purposeful Vacation

In hindsight, I did not know what I was committing us to.  To frame this statement, let me say that our young family has been immersing ourselves more deeply into mission opportunities each of the past several years.

Sweet Success

How do you measure success? No doubt there are many different answers to that question. But when it comes down to how do you manage success at a Bible School, there are two indicators.

Dear Partner in Hope

Dealing with disappointment, while never easy, says something about who we are. Now there are a group of Ukrainian musicians who are having to do this as they come to terms with the decision of the British Border Agency to refuse them visas for entry to the UK in October to help us with the Silver Jubilee tour.

You Made a difference

I first got to know about Hope Now 20+ years ago at St Helen, Bishopsgate. Working in the  nearby Lloyd’s Building, I would go to their Tuesday lunchtime services.
