Since 1934 Slavic Gospel Association has been focused on helping Slavic churches reach their lands with the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
These churches have been faithful even through periods of cruel persecution.
Our mission is to reach the former Soviet Union nations with the gospel through financial and prayer support to the local national Church Planters and Children’s Ministry Teams.
Secularism, cynicism, addiction, trafficking, and crime all beckon to them.
But these ‘hopeless’ kids light up when SGA-supported church workers create outreach events at Christmas-time and beyond.
God opens their hearts to Jesus.
Through Orphans Reborn events, girls and boys—often forgotten or unwanted—hear about their Saviour and get plugged in to biblically sound churches.
Help us to send the SGA teams again this Christmas.
The SGA team has gathered some other short videos from faithful servants we assist … men and women who live life on mission daily for the sake of the Gospel.
Here are some recent videos from our Youtube Channel

Help churches respond to the incredible surge of hurting souls and ministry opportunities. The crises of 2022 — war, inflation, recession, mass refugee migration — opened a door for evangelism unlike any since the Soviet Union fell. A hunger for God was already growing in the former Soviet nations. Now it is keener than ever!
Our ministry is growing at a record rate. As a result, the increasing number of children, families, and individuals coming to SGA-supported churches and ministries has created an urgent need for more resources.
Together with our international offices we need to help more than 6,000 churches in our network in Ukraine and across other countries in the former Soviet Union. They must reach more people who desperately need to know Christ, grow in Him, and reach others for our Lord.
They need brothers and sisters in Christ, like you, to give generously to help answer these concerns.
Please pray that the Lord will glorify Himself through the lives of His people!
Christmas period is the most active for the Orphans’ ministry. In November the youth started preparing the puppet theatre show. They gathered for several hours’ rehearsals every week. We began to buy chocolate and sweets. During long frosty evenings we gathered the candies into gift bags. We are working together trying to put into bag not only candies but a piece of our love and care.
Many orphan children feel abandoned and unwanted. Especially when their parents are still alive but have decided to give up their rights to their children or selfishly live for themselves. This leaves a child with a lack of understanding, and a burden that weighs heavy on their hearts. When their hearts are weighed down, loneliness and depression can easily set in. It can even lead to a state of despair. However, that state of despair can be replaced with the love of our Heavenly Father.
In this time of war in Ukraine, many are walking through the doors of churches seeking answers to questions that have remained unanswered. The obvious initial questions are simply, “Where will the next meal come from?” or “Where will I lay my head tonight?” But then, deeper questions begin to surface. As these Internally Displaced People deal with the loss of homes, food and loved ones, many are finding answers in our one true God. Many SGA supported churches have become a refuge and safe place.
Sasha was born in Russia. He never knew his father. His mother was an alcoholic, and he was often left on the street, forgotten by his mother.
Sasha lived in Siberia, and when his mother left home drunk in the winter, he would go looking for her. Often, he wore only shorts, a jacket and thin slippers. He often got frostbite on his extremities and now he still has problems with his legs because of this …
Greetings from the Bible Church of Hostomel!
We would like to share with you the blessing of organising a day camp for children. This is already the third summer camp since the Biblical Church of Hostomel began its activities in 2022 after the de-occupation of Hostomel. The camp lasted for 5 days, from July 2nd to July 6th …
Our working camps take place three times a year during school breaks. Children get themselves prepared in advance for these difficult but joyful workdays. In the camps, they are able to develop patience, focus, and the ability to manage their time and energy. The teenagers understand that a difficult life awaits them, and we want to help them prepare for it.
