The Christner has been ministering in Nikolaev, Ukraine for the past four and a half years. God has given them a heart for the fatherless and motherless children of this nation. "Broken homes and families are an epidemic here. Many children don't know their parents, and others wish they didn't by the abuse they have come to know through them. God has surrounded us with a team of local believers that also have hearts to see Jesus touch these precious little ones. We have a wide open door to minister in a local government run orphanage. We praise God for the fruit we are seeing in the lives of these children. We have also bought an unfinished building that we are preparing for summer camps, foster care, and our own orphanage. The needs are great with every aspect of the ministry. We need finances to minister in the government run orphanages weekly. There is a lack of funding to feed the kids, and we would like to be a blessing by giving food. And, there is a great need to finish the buildings we have bought to take in kids. Please pray about partnering with us to see a nameless, faceless generation radically take hold of God's Kingdom."
