Revelation 15:3bSome Stories from Kids We Support
MEET BOGDANWe are raising funds for this 6-year-old boy from Chernivtsi Region. He has Cerebral Palsy and needs rehabilitation in a clinic in Western Ukraine. Rehabilitation consists of spinal correction, reflex therapy, complex massage, mobilizing gymnastics, mobilization of peripheral joints, apitherapy, mechanotherapy on “Motomed”, orofacial massage, speech therapy, and water therapy. 10-day course costs 1900 dollars. This covers his medical expenses and his parents staying next to the clinic. They try to go three or four times a year, and their last course took place in August. There is no medical insurance in Ukraine, and all expenses have to be covered by parents. His parents cannot afford it.
We are helping this girl from Kyiv. She has Cerebral Palsy and needs physical therapy and rehabilitation procedures. It’s approximately 400 dollars a month. Because of power outages in the city due to bombing, the prices for rehabilitation are constantly going up. The girl gets sick often as her immune system is not as strong. Sometimes she has only one procedure a week, sometimes four. She is 6 years old.

meet children in kherson regionWe are helping to raise money for spreading the Gospel among children in Kherson villages - ruined, half-empty, destroyed and so needy in Lord’s presence through His faithful servants like Eugene. The villages are on the front line, but families with children still live there. And they are so blessed and happy when Christians come and show them God’s care - through the VBS-type events they organize. They need money for transportation, for snacks, for gifts, for crafts, for Bibles. Please support them by raising money among your friends, during your VBS and special church events. And help make a difference in life of children in these villages in Ukraine!
When Diana and Serhii understood that their first son has Cerebral Palsy, they struggled a lot to accept this reality. Being Chrisitans, they knew that God decides who will be ill, who will be healthy. And in prayer they were comforted. Their life changed - they started treatment courses, rehabilitations of all kinds, they went through so much. And they learnt that they are not alone - there are other families even in their own town - those who are very discouraged about health and condition of their children. Many of those parents are not believers. So, Diana and Serhii started a ministry and called it “Calling of Faithful” to support families with children who have special needs, to share with them about God who decided to entrust them with children and Who will help them to be faithful in this calling. They registered non-profit organization, opened a Rehabilitation Center for children and their parents. They are getting ready for Christmas now with Max Lucado’s “You are special” program. Parents will be the actors. They need money for Christmas gifts for the children who will be learning about Faithful Loving God, who cares for them.
