WHY IT MATTERS

Poverty. Broken relationships. Fear of the future – especially now during the war with Russia. For many women who find themselves pregnant, abortion seems to be the only answer. We have found that by providing compassionate relationships, medical care, and very real humanitarian assistance throughout her pregnancy and the first 18 months after the baby’s delivery, we can truly make a life-saving and life-changing difference in the lives of these moms and their unborn children. What started as one of the first Pregnancy Care Centers in Ukraine has grown into a regional effort in four cities. Interestingly, even in these past three years during tremendously difficult economic times and the uncertainty of war, a record number of mothers have decided to continue their pregnancies with tangible support and personal care from Mission to Ukraine staff and volunteers.

HOW WE SUPPORT

PREGNANCY CARE SERVICES

COUNSELING SERVICES

Our compassionate staff are on the front lines, providing free counseling services at our Zhytomyr headquarters as well as spending numerous hours counseling women in abortion clinics throughout the region. By offering support to these women, we are able to love them in a practical way, as well as educate them on the inherent value of human life.

SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT

Mission to Ukraine provides a spiritual refuge for women searching for hope in the midst of crisis. Our staff desires nothing more than for the love of Christ to penetrate the hearts of the women they serve. Through weekly Bible studies, individual mentoring, and summer day camps, we seek to embrace women with love and care, guiding them into a relationship with Jesus and connecting them with a spiritual family within the local church.

HEALTHY LIFESTYLES

In a post-Soviet society where premarital sex and abortion have been the norm, young people often find themselves buried in emotional and spiritual confusion. Our Healthy Lifestyles Program helps to dispel the myths and misinformation that surround abortion. We give youth a bigger perspective on positive and lasting relationships while educating them on the value of human life. The Healthy Lifestyles Programs are taught to thousands of students in secondary schools, colleges, universities, and orphanages throughout the region. Our knowledgeable staff equips students with accurate information about HIV-AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases, pregnancy and abortion, and the realities of alcohol, nicotine, and drug addiction.

CHURCH INTEGRATION

While serving our women who choose to become mothers we are able to provide a loving community and tangible support. Once they end the formal part of our program we continue to engage them. Yet, their support system can diminish over time. By integrating mothers and fathers into local churches, they experience long-term community, emotional support, and spiritual growth. We identify church leaders who can collaborate with Mission to Ukraine and help connect our women to groups. Many of these groups are now led by women who are previous clients of ours!
