It has been heartbreaking to watch the developing war in Ukraine and the resulting stream of refugees. While we are in partnership with Odessa Theological Seminary in Ukraine and a church association (Baptists Union of Ukraine), we do not have a direct presence in the country. Our partners do not have capacity to process donations directly at this time. Therefore, we encourage you to support the following like-minded organisations that are well placed to assist those in need right now in Ukraine and refugees in nearby countries. 

Donate

Pray

• For peace in the region.
• For protection for Ukrainians and all caught in the crossfire.
• For continued support of those who are fleeing.

United World Mission (UWM)

United World Mission (UWM), which collaborates with and supports Odessa Theological Seminary, also works with other seminaries in Ukraine who are opening their doors to house the internally displaced and assist those who are fleeing. All funds raised will be strategically distributed to UWM’s seminary partners, churches and individuals to help refugees obtain food, temporary shelter, and transportation.
