Reports and testimonies from David Hathaway's ministry across Ukraine, Central Asia, Eastern Europe, Israel and Britain.
Anna and Olexander Chubenko’s daughter, Polina, is 8 years old. They live in a village in the Cherkasy region of Ukraine. Polina was 4 years old when she began to experience a lot of pain with severe swelling. Finally it was discovered she was in the early stages of sarcoma and had to begin a very difficult, long and painful series of treatments.
David Hathaway’s Ministry, working with Philadelphia Church Kyiv, has been supporting displaced persons since the war began in east Ukraine, early 2014. These are the stories of three families who fled to safety. It is estimated that over 2 million have been internally displaced. The front line is approximately 280 miles in length. The conflict in eastern Ukraine has transitioned to a stalemate after it first erupted, but shelling and skirmishes still occur regularly, with frequent escalations in violence. The situation remains unresolved.
Despite the difficult circumstances, fear and despair, David Hathaway’s Ministry in Israel continues uninterrupted. That is because we care for the Russian Holocaust survivors not by our strength, but by God’s Power. Because He opens the doors for us, many are accepting Jesus as their personal Saviour.
David Hathaway first traveled to Israel in the early 1960s, organising the first over-land trip by road from Britain to Israel. From that point, David’s heart was burdened for Israel, seeking to bring blessing to its people, longing to see the fulfilment of Bible prophecy.
Each month we support Russian-Holocaust survivors living in Israel, providing them with practical and spiritual support. These are the stories of three of the recipients.
During September, over their most holy days, Israel was once again living under lockdown and restriction. Thousands of new coronavirus cases were reported each day, overwhelming hospitals, and Covid-19 deaths were steadily climbing. Fear and depression are gripping the hearts of young and old. However, David Hathaway’s Ministry in Israel stands firmly in faith, continuing to serve and love God’s people.
During August our staff in Israel offered prayers, made visits, had fellowship, and supplied humanitarian aid with many Russian Holocaust Survivors and their families living in Israel. What makes our work in Israel so special and unique is the full-time spiritual care and support shown by our devoted staff.
