Adopt a Pastor in Ukraine

Pastors in Ukraine are serving under pressure most of us cannot imagine. They are caring for refugees, distributing aid, visiting the elderly and disabled, encouraging families, and keeping churches open in communities affected by war.

Many of them do this while working other jobs, supporting their families, and living with constant stress, air raid alerts, and uncertainty.

They have stayed to serve.

Now they need churches willing to stand with them.

What It Means to Adopt a Pastor

For $1,500 per month, a U.S. church can help support one Ukrainian pastor through:

  • Monthly financial support to reduce personal and ministry stress

  • Planned breaks and retreats for rest and recovery

  • Prayer and encouragement from the adopting church

  • Ongoing relationship through updates and communication

  • Practical support so the pastor can continue serving his church and community

This is not just financial help. It is a partnership.

Why This Matters

War does not only destroy buildings. It wears down people.

Pastors are constantly caring for others while carrying their own emotional, physical, and spiritual burdens. Without support, burnout becomes a serious threat.

When a church adopts a pastor, it helps provide stability, encouragement, and rest so that pastor can continue serving faithfully.

Your Church Can Make a Difference

Your church may never fully understand what it is like to serve in a war zone—but you can help carry the burden.

By adopting a pastor, your congregation becomes part of his story and part of the ministry happening through his church.
