The blessed beginning of 2026

I greet you dear servants of the PIEI mission. It is a great privilege and blessing for me to serve God together with you. The beginning of 2026 marked not only with enhance of hostilities but also with strong frost. All these things influanced on the ministry of our church. We had to use a lot of efforts for regular services and different events.

As results, we felt God`s support and security.

For this period three persons had repented.

We conducted a street evangelisation on the main street in downtown. Our youth took the significant participation in this. They handed out literatures to othe people, booklets of our church and invitations to the services.

We had a meeting for all church called CoffeeHouse.

We made a meeting for families of fallen soldiers. It was not the first event like this. We give them not only some presents but also Word of God. Some participators of war preach at these meetings.

I went to Khotyn town for the solving regional problems and for meeting with our leadership from Kiev.

The choir from the church "Living vine" came to our church and another choir from the "Philadelphia" church. It was a great blessings and support for us.

Please, continue to pray for the stop of this war and for repentance of our people. We plan to enhance prayers and events for this case.

With a prayer for you all, Grigoriy Pastushak.

Bible study for different people

I greet you, dear brothers and sisters!

I have a great privilege to serve God and His glory together with you.

This last time is full of different events. All this month is going a preparing to the baptism in our church. We plan to perform it in December. We thank God that there are a lot of people who want to make a covenant with God through baptism.

The lessons in Theological institute has got started. It is so hard for our brothers to come here due to the wartime.

I visited a couple of churches in our region. Our brothers and sisters are really need spiritual support.

Two days conference has occurred in Boyan. The participants were pastors with wives from 4 regions of Ukraine. It was a blessed and unforgettable time.

As the church, we continue to help refugees and military families. Besides the social and food aid, we make a Bible study for them.

Each week we go to mental hospital with hot dinner for them. There are a lot of military guys as well.

The war is going on in Ukraine. Each night, Russia deliver hundreds of drones and rockets to our cities and villages. Only Jesus can stop this mess. Please, continue to pray about us.

We started to prepare to the Christmas Eve.

God bless you all!

With a prayer for you, Grigoriy Pastushak.

Camp for military families

Peace and grace to you! We have a great God`s blessing when we can serve in His church for His glory. More close the church approach to the ascending, more big responsibility lies on us.

As fall came, the quantity of events increased, particular inside of house of prayer. Many camps ended. They had a purpose, not only a rest but also reach out those who are not in the church with Gospel. Most of all, I remembered the camp with wives and children of soldiers who are on the front line. We accepted a lot of good feedbacks and thanks from them. Some of them at first time came in such camp.

As educational year got started, so our theological institute opened the door for all students who want to study. Although it is a hard time to go outside for young people, despite that there are a lot of willings.

People who repented at our church and camps have a desire to get a baptism. So we have a plan to start lessons for baptism soon.

Now we are preparing for the Thanksgiving Day that is going to happen in the last Sunday of September.

September 13 is about to occur the regional children's conference in our house of prayer. We expect that a lot of boys and girls from the entire region will gather together so that receive knowledge and support for ministry in their churches.

We continue to visit military hospital regularly where a lot of wounded soldiers are treating. Also, we visit mental hospital with goods for patients. There are a lot of soldiers that need spiritual support.

I thank to all brothers and sisters from the PIEI mission that support our ministry in Ukraine. Please continue to pray for the end of war. All of us want a peace.

With a prayer for you,

missionary in Chernivtsi Grigoriy Pastushak.

Baptism in our church

Peace and grace to you, dear friends. I'd like to share with you with my joy that fill my heart. Today in our church was a baptism. This event has a huge meaning. Eighteen brothers and sisters gave a promise of good conscience to God. Many of them are from non-Christian families. They decided to dedicate their lives to Christ. After the service, we had a great communication at our backyard of House of prayer. And tomorrow we start children's camp in our church, about 100 children suppose to come. Our team prepared a great program for them. I praise the Lord for such wonderful events at our church.

Certainly, we don't forget to pray for those brothers and sisters of our country that don't have such possibility to conduct and visit a camp.

We have plans ahead to conduct camps for military families, youth, blind people and for widows. We pray for that through such events and sermons of Word of God people could come to God.

We already started our program to enter to Theological institute. We hope to accept a lot of new students.

I spend a lot of time for talk and solve issues of people and church issues.

I sincerely appreciate to you for our partnership in ministry to God. May God bless all of you!

Please pray for the war to end.

Missionary Pastushak Hrihoriy.

Meeting with wives and children of fallen soldiers

Peace and grace to you brothers and sisters! Grigoriy Pastushak greets all of you. Thanked God that He generously and wonderfully blessed me and the church where I have ministry.

My heart rejoice when people convert to God and prepare for the baptism. For the last month, three persons prayed with a repentance prayer and then 10 are preparing to the baptism. We plan to conduct it in the midst of the summer when these people will to make a will with God.

We continue evangelization through all measures, especially through personal relations and different events. Furthermore, we have good results with ministry for blind people. Likewise, we support them with products and spiritual aid.

I had the opportunity to visit Moldova with the youth choir. Such trips inspire youth for ministry, and local churches receive joy.

We had a meeting with wives and children of fallen soldiers. This was a great opportunity to tell them about Jesus Christ. We collected good packages with products for them. More than 60 women and 70 children visited this event.

Also, we had regional teens meting. At the end of this event, 30 guys and girls prayed to God with repentance.

Now we are preparing for summer camps.

I had the opportunity to visit a couple of churches in our region.

Please, continue to pray about end of war between of Russia and Ukraine.

We greet all of you!

Easter events

Peace and grace to all of you dear coworkers of the mission PIEI. I genuinely believe that our Lord is close, and He is going to take His church to the clouds for meeting with Him. May God bless us to be participants of such a miraculous world scale event.

For the last month we had a lot of interesting events.

Firstly, I am glad that new people come to God with repentance. Recently, 9 souls became Christians. Now, I started the preparation for baptism with them. Hopefully, they will join the our church this summer.

We continue to support people who suffered from the war with humanitarian aid. Many refugees still live here, and also wounded soldiers came here to military hospitals. We visit them with products and the Gospel.

I had the opportunity to get on air at the radio programs. We had interesting topics and good feedbacks from listeners.

Monthly we have youth meetings with a lot of guys and girls. Many of them are from non-Christian families.

Now we are preparing for the meeting with wives of soldiers, who are on the front line, and their children.

We are going to visit boarding schools and other public institutions with Easter program.

Please continue to pray that the war stop.

Send greetings to Marilyn and Carl please. I pray for them.

Social ministries

I greet you, friends! I want together with to thank God for all the blessings that He has provided in the 2025 year already. Despite the fact that many disruptive events happen in the world, we are under the protection of Almighty God.

I am glad that lately, six people have repented at our church. Those people are different in age but when they came to the church they understood that they needed Christ. I pray for that that they will get a baptism.

Our church continues our social ministry among the population of our city. We provide aid to mental and military hospitals. To help people you don't need to go to the East, because a lot of wounded people are here.

I thank God for the activity of our youth. There are repentances of girls and boys in their meetings.

Last month I had several trips to the region of Bucovina. Many churches need spiritual support. Churches experience an outflow of people caused by emigration.

I spend a lot of time in meetings and talking with different people. It is so important today to spread compassion and encouragement to the people.

We continue to pray for our government. Ukraine is bled and powerless. But our help is only in God.

thank you all for your support. May God bless you abundantly.

We pray for you, missionary Pastushak Hrigoriy.

Assistance for soldiers

Brothers and sisters, peace to you! I have a great privilege and joy to cooperate together with you on God’s field. I think that we live right before the ascension of church. So we will care to be participants of that grandiose event.

The last month was important for me since I spent a major of its part in Theological institute. In the beginning, the second course was, and then the fourth course. We studied important eschatology issues. Students curious what the Bible says about the last time.

We completed lessons for those who are going to have baptism. It has to happen in the beginning of December.

Our church continue to visit the hospital where military guys are wounded. At first, they need moral and spiritual support. Besides that, weekly we prepare food for those who are in mental hospital.

Two weeks ago, we had a special prayer for Society of evangelization of children. We thanked God for the team that shared the Gospel to 1000 children of our region this summer.

I thank God that we have possibility to share the Gospel for non-Christians for salvation. Two persons repented during this time.

We are engaged with preparation of the Christmas. Children's choir, youth and elders plan different events in our city so that tell people about Christ.

Brothers and sisters, please continue to pray about Ukraine. We have a terrible situation now. There is only one hope and it is God!

May God bless you all!

With a prayer for you, Hrihoriy Pastushak.

Thanksgiving Day

I greet you, brothers and sisters!

I have a great honor, together with you, to proclaim the Gospel of salvation to the people who are far from God.

As the autumn has come, our services shifted in the building of the church among believers. We started the ministry in the Sunday school - Bible study for children. Kids from Christian and not Christian families come to these events with a great joy. I think that this work with children is one of the most important ministries in the church.

Our youth started to conduct their coffee house meetings. On such events a lot of non-Christian people in usual come. There are repentances and that is a great joy.

Now lessons in theological institute had started. Students come from different point of our region. Churches have a great need in servants. We are concerned about that because a lot of families move abroad. And mostly they are youth who escape the war.

Recently there was the regional brothers conference in Boyan. There were a lot of brothers and quests from Romania and USA.

We started the preparation to the baptism that is going to happen in December.

In September, we celebrated Thanksgiving Day. This holiday service was really blessed.

We are getting ready for literary musical meeting. Christian poets released the next book of poems. And this is going to be a nice event for us.

We continue to go to the East of Ukraine with a purpose to help people and churches.

Please, pray for the end of the war in Ukraine, and also for repentance of people.

With respect and prayers for you

Grigoriy Pastushak

New families during a war

I greet you dear friends in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ!

I thank God that I can accomplish the ministry together with you.

From the beginning of the summer, we have much more work. Especially it related to the camps of different age categories. Last month we conducted a camp for widows and lonely women. Also, we had a meeting with the wives and children of soldiers who died or still are on the front line. In a row camps for children and youth.

Three months ago I visited Paris. I attended two churches which mostly consist of refugees from Ukraine. They need spiritual and moral support. One church was founded during the war. So today we have an issue with the ordination of ministers there.

I thank God that during a war new families are created. Last Saturday I conducted a matrimony of a young couple.

We have much more meetings with the members of the church to solve their problems. It takes a lot of spiritual and moral strength.

We continue to support our brothers and sisters who live close to the front line.

Now we are preparing for the baptism. It has to be in July.

We pray fervently for the end of the war. People are tired and they ask God for peace.

I thank God for all of you and I ask you to not forget to pray about us.

With prayer for you, Grigoriy Pastushak.
