a brother in Ukraine

Hi folks,

One of the Ukrainian guys I roomed with while in Ukraine, Yaroslav Ageenko, works full time with Campus Crusade doing university ministry in Kyiv, Ukraine. Yarik is about my age, and has a heart to serve the Lord and the diligence to do it. He organized the summer project at which I served as an English teacher.

He is seeking $400 in monthly support, and I'm asking if you would consider supporting him, or at least give a one-time gift. I've put his support letter, which includes student testimonies about his work, on my website in JPG (http://kepler.covenant.edu/~swanson/YarikSupport.jpg) or PDF (http://kepler.covenant.edu/~swanson/YarikSupport.pdf) formats.

His Campus Crusade account number is 2775210. To give, go to https://give.ccci.org/ and put Yarik's account number in the "Enter a Quick Link Code" box.

Ukraine just had presidential and parliamentary election today, and the results are uncertain as to which parties will form a coalition to form a government. In a country divided like Ukraine, there is only one message that crosses the political and language (Ukrainian in the west, Russian in the east) divisions: the gospel of Jesus, who crossed the great divide between God and a rebellious humanity.

Pray that the gospel of God's grace in Jesus will advance in Ukraine. Pray that Yarik receives the support that he need, and if you are able, please give to help this brother.
