Getting prepared and ready at the House of Hope

December 30th, 2021|

We trust that you are well and that you’ve had a blessed Christmas season. Thank you so much for your very generous gift. We’re running in “emergency mode” at present getting the House of Hope ready for the possible increase of orphans and homeless children coming in over the next few months if the Russian Army breaks through into Eastern Ukraine again. It’s looking more and more dangerous day by day, as the UK and USA set up a NATO base in the Odessa port as threats and warnings go backwards and forwards between Russia and the Western Nations.

House of Hope – Extensions – Roof Complete and Windows in – Rescue Missions

May 3rd, 2021|

On Saturday 24th April, our Odessa manager, Peter Emelyanov, sent these amazing photos of the roof of the House of Hope all complete. The beige, smaller section of building in the foreground is the original two storey building. See how much bigger the whole building is now – built over the top of the original building and around it. The original building only covered 72 m² of space. The whole building with the new extensions (four storeys) covers 295 m² of land. Soon, as we finish the interior a section at a time, we’ll be taking in 50 to 70 [...]

Looming Crisis in Ukraine

April 6th, 2021|

You may have noticed on the news lately that Russia is openly aiding the Russian Rebel Army in Eastern Ukraine, whereas in the past Russia said that it was not involved. You may remember some years ago I was conducting seminars for the military in Latvia and Ukraine, and many of the Ukrainian soldiers committed their lives to Jesus. Their morale was boosted, and they began to drive the Russian Rebel Army back almost out of the eastern province of Donetsk. This rebel army has been contained in the south-eastern corner of the Donetsk province – a long way from [...]

Training Young “Shepherds” to bring people to Jesus

December 26th, 2020|

It's been such a blessing to train and equip many people in personal evangelism, in the Odessa region over the last 3 years. This has paid off with these humble local people leading so many effectively to Christ over the past 10 months. We recorded a Christmas video with an encouraging Christmas message based on how God chooses to use people in His service those who are weak, lonely, broken and discarded, like the youngsters and leaders at the House of Hope. It’s to these valiant young people, and to you as well, that we dedicate this blessing. Please [...]
