    Prayer walks

    The beginning of baptism for new converts

    Baptism is a conscious act of obedience to the Lord and a public testimony of faith in Jesus Christ. It is performed by immersion in water, symbolizing death to the old life and resurrection to a new, renewed life in Christ. During Sunday worship, the entire community shares the joy of this event.
    It is not only an important moment of spiritual birth but also a testimony of God's grace and the work of the Holy Spirit in people's lives. Baptism unites the community, reminding everyone of their own devotion to the Lord and the church's mission in this world.

    The start of Sunday meetings

    We began renting a music school space for Sunday services. Later, several more spaces were rented. This was not always convenient for people, and some left us.
    We are also very grateful for the active participation in the ministry and the founding of the church by American missionaries: Mike Ray, and later Joe Reagan. Great thanks to the Lord for their involvement, ministry, and all kinds of help for the Grace church.

    Ministry to orphans, children, and families in difficult life circumstances (DLC)

    Our church pays great attention to the ministry to orphans, children, and families in difficult life circumstances. Brother Eugene Klyus helped orphans a lot and started the "Future Club" children's ministry for the region, and our church was involved in this.

    - We help with food, clothing, and medicine thanks to cooperation with other churches, organizations, and caring people.
    - We help children with their studies and strive to bring God's love and truth to them, promoting their spiritual growth.
    - In cooperation with the public organization "Partnership and Development," we implement a mentorship program for children from orphanages, helping them prepare for independent life.
    Future Club: In the Center for Social and Psychological Rehabilitation of Children in Dnipro, we hold club meetings where children develop their talents, play games, and learn about Christian values.
    - We provide spiritual, social, psychological, and material support to children and families in difficult circumstances.

    Beginning of online evangelism

    The online evangelism initiative began with Pastor Alexander Romanyuk recording mini-sermons, initially posted in the church chat. These short messages quickly gained popularity among our community, leading to the idea of creating a separate YouTube channel for the church.
    Brothers Yurij Bulieiev and Andrey Shcherbina joined the organization and technical support of the project, helping to set up all processes: video editing, preparation for publication, channel administration, etc.
    Online evangelism is especially significant in conditions where many members of our community became displaced or went abroad due to the war. This ministry allows them to stay connected with the church, maintain spiritual ties, and continue to participate in our life regardless of physical distance.
    The main goals of this ministry are:
    - To bring the Good News to a wide audience using modern media.
    - To maintain the spiritual unity of our community regardless of the location of its members.
    - To inspire and strengthen the faith of Christians through regular online sermons and teachings.
    - To spread Christian values in society and be a light in dark times.
    Each month, thousands of Christians watch our videos on YouTube and social media. We thank God that through this ministry we can reach people all over the world, bringing hope, inspiration, and the Word of Life into their homes.

    Church life ruring the war

    With the beginning of the full-scale invasion, many members left the country, caring for their own safety and the safety of their children. We believe that the Lord will bring them back later. God has not abandoned us, and so the ministries were and continue to be performed in this place. We believe that God created His church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it.
    To this day, the Lord continues His work through the Grace church. We participate in various assistance efforts for those on the front lines and the underprivileged. Praise be to God for giving us the opportunity to do this.

Throughout all this time, the church has held summer sports camps for children, evangelism, and prayer walks.
