Karlivka Presbyterian
Pastor Ihor Stetsiura and his family

About

The Church in Karlivka has a weekly Sunday service and sermon, as well as a ministry of mercy: we help refugees from conflict zones, provide targeted assistance to large families, and elderly people living alone.

 

The Church hosts a children’s evangelistic ministry called “The Samaritan Bag. We have house-group Bible studies and we conduct seminars for the enlightenment of the church and the blessing of the larger community. We study our Presbyterian and Reformed confessional documents to encourage people to learn and think more deeply so that they can stand confidently in their faith.

Pray for

  • The pastor and others serving – for their stamina and ability to daily find joy in their service.
  • The spiritual growth of the church and the new people who have begun attending
  • God to provide all the finances for the costly work of improving the church.  Pray that we would have the funds to pay for the labour and also the parts to continue constructions
  • The difficult paperwork of privatizing the land (under Soviet times, everything was taken by the state, and you have to prove that it belongs to you now).
  • Pray for the organization of our Children’s camp – “The Greatest Journey”. ray that God would prepare the hearts of those who will come and that he will provide us with enough helpers to run the program well. 

Praise for

  • Kharkiv Presbyterian Church, who helped us to obtain a solid fuel heating system and helped deliver it.
  • God keeping as safe and enabing us to continue working for Him.
