3 New Orphanages Supported in Ukraine

Thanks to the efforts of Kirk Rosin from North Dakota and Alla Vasylieva, Direct of Bible Orphan Ministry, OGT has expanded our Adopt-An-Orphanage ministry to include three orphanages in Ukraine. These orphanage are in dire need of help. Many of the orphans are severely disabled; many have lost parents because of the war with Russia. Meanwhile, our Adopt-An-Orphanage team in St. Petersburg, Russia, continues to work to establish relationships with institutions in Russia and Eastern Europe. These are orphans who were taken out of their homes because of parental neglect. They are released at age 18 and left to fend for themselves. Young men are drafted into the Russian army. Young women fall victim to the Russian mob, which leads to addiction, prostitution, and an early death. Our teams do Gospel outreach and provide humanitarian aid, which consists of clothing, food, medical supplies, and more. We ask sponsors to contribute $3,400 to OGT annually to a specific institution, which is used to help cover shipping costs, expenses of our teams, and the cost of relief materials. We are grateful for many sponsors who are already supporting an orphanage. For more information, contact Paul Leckband, OGT Director of Spiritual Correspondence. His email is pleckband@ogt.org. His cell phone is 402-992-0578. He can answer your questions and suggest a specific orphanage for you to sponsor.
