Praise God! What can we add to these words? Gospel is preached in schools and orphanages. There were times in the past when we could only dream about it.
I even don’t know from what to start… There is nothing I can compare the work in orphanage to. That’s why I’ll simply tell you about my experience.
The“Day of open doors for supporters” is held every year on the last Friday of November in the orphanage #1 nemed after T.G.Shevchenko, in Kherson city. “Supporters” are people who suport them and help financially; people who are not indifferent to the kid’s tragedy. “Agape” missionaries have been invited to this so called by children “family holiday”.
There is one sister in “Agape” mission – Elena Mihaylovna Gordienko who lives in Nikolaev. She is 50 years old. Her husband Vitaliy Anatolievich is involved in the “Ark of Salvation” ministry.
We welcome You our dear friends. And once again on these special days we sincerely wish you Marry Christmas and Happy New Year. God bless you all!!!
The Agape mission celebrates this holiday in a very special way – holding Evangelical meetings and visiting people, Christmas programs (like singing, games, puppet-play) in boarding-schools that are situated on the territory of Ukraine. And we would like to tell you about one of such meetings in this article.
It is a blessing for us visiting schools - bringing friendships, fellowship and love to orphaned children. Agape continues to serve with the Christmas programs, visiting schools. This time we visited the orphanage in the village of Kalinin, where the children and the caregivers waited for us with an excitement.
In order to fully appreciate and evaluate the importance of “Agape” ministry we need to ask orphans what these lessons mean to them.
I like to sing songs about God very much and to study golden verses from the Bible…

God helped me to quit smoking and drinking and I’ve quit friendship with those who drinks and steals. I believe in God because He gave me live and love. It’s so important to believe in God
