Ukraine Pastors

From 2000 to 2006 Pastor Al and his family served as missionaries in Ukraine with the Evangelical Free Church of Canada mission board. During that time three churches were established under full Ukrainian leadership. Those churches along with three others are now the Evangelical Free Church of Ukraine. They are actively reaching their communities for our Lord.

Yura & Aleona

Yura & Aleona live and minister in the city of Kramatorsk, Ukraine. Located in eastern Ukraine in the Donetsk region it was one of the cities taken over by the Russian backed separatists. During that time Yura stayed in the city at the risk of his own life in order to continue to help orphans and elderly. Yura & Aleona continue to have a huge heart of the hurting. Many in their church are pensioners who have next to nothing. Pray for...

  • God to bring new younger families into the church. Most fled the city during the occupation. 
  • For God's blessing on the outreach activities Yura and the church put on for children and others.
