Ukraine MB Camp Ministries
Will you help Ukrainian children and families to build healing friendships, meet Jesus, and find hope for their future?
Hosting camps in Ukraine has been complicated and dangerous during the war, but each year’s camp experience has shown us how crucial these events are for children and youth who are daily dealing with the trauma of separation, displacement, grief and death.
Camps organized by the MB churches of Molochansk, Vinnitsa, Novomoskovsk and Kyiv are now taking place in the relative safety of the Carpathian Mountains in Western Ukraine. Hundreds of children are able to experience the healing impact of a grace-filled team of counselors, surrounded by the beauty of nature. This location allows for Ukrainian children to reclaim, in part, their childhood: hiking, swimming, campfire gatherings, prayer, learning God’s Word, and time to form bonds of trust with leaders who are teaching them how to follow Jesus. All of this is so much easier without the relentless sounds of missiles, drones and air raid sirens.
At present, the site can only accommodate tents, limiting camps to the warmer months of summer. Multiply Ukraine has a vision to build a permanent camp facility that will accommodate twenty-five participants per event, which would allow for camps to be run all year round. Your support can make this possible.
$ 60 sends one Ukrainian child to camp (approximately 150 children per year)
$ 350 provides support for one volunteer team to run a camp
$ 2500 allows for the completion of one stage of construction for the new facility (foundation, walls, roof, electrical, heating, furniture, etc.)
