GLOBAL UKRAINE AID - HELP US CHANGE LIVES

Be Blessed. Become A Blessing!

Since SLAVIC Christian Ministries inception in 2001, we have grown into a multi-faceted ministry that has reached over 16,000 people with the gospel message. Many of these people who have been reached are the orphaned and outcast of society.

Every year, we are amazed and blessed to watch God’s work being accomplished because of the sacrificial giving from his people. With your donation, you can help rebuild the lives of many people we are serving in Kharkiv and across Ukraine.

We ask that you prayerfully consider supporting our worthy cause. Please partner with us and help those who desperately need the touch of the Savior. Until we recover from this devastating war, all proceeds earmarked for Ukraine will go towards humanitarian needs and to help war refugees.

HOPE TO PEOPLE - CONNECT INTERNATIONAL 

In this time of panic and instability, Ukrainian churches have become 24/7 crisis centers- offering physical, emotional, mental, financial and spiritual assistance to those in need. As the number of Ukrainians attempting to leave the country and those displaced internally is growing, churches are looking and praying for the financial means to meet the overwhelming needs of refugees.
Consider being an answer to their prayers by making a donation

Converge Estonia is a church-planting effort in what is considered “the least religious country” in the entire world.  As a Baltic state where 80% of the country believes religion plays no part in daily life, Estonia is now considered the most secular nation in the world.  So Legacy Church in partnership with Converge Worldwide, wants to help support a small, but growing vision to reach an emerging generation with the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Kuldar and Margaret Klijuste joined Josiah Venture (JV) in September 2009.  In that year both responded to God’s calling and moved to the university city of Tartu to reach young leaders.  They have since moved to Tallinn to lead the JV team and be part of a new local Converge church plant.  They have two sons, Albert and Samuel, and two daughters, Matilda and Helmi.  As a family, they want to be part of a bigger movement among the youth of Eastern Europe and desire to lead  the next generation to Jesus.  Legacy Church wants to join that effort!

PLANTING CHURCHES AROUND THE WORLD

​

Three billion people around the world lack access to the Gospel.  You can help change that.

Together we can get the Gospel to everyone, everywhere.  Legacy Church has joined an unstoppable movement of disciple makers and church planters who are reaching their nations for Christ.

In the year 2020 in the midst of COVID, TTI helped plant 10,635 new churches world-wide, reaching an estimated 207,300 new believers.  Typically each new church starts with a church planting pastor and 20 new believers. 

3,303 church were launched in east and north Africa in 2020.  65% of those churches were started with “first generation” Christians, people who are the first in their families to claim faith in Jesus Christ.

Legacy Church in partnership with TTI would like to help plant 15 more churches in 2021 through Mission 1:8.

WEND Africa, Women Empowerment Network Design,

is a non-profit which provides opportunities for employment, education & life skills to war-affected mothers and their children in Northern Uganda. 

Latest UPDATE:  The COVID lockdown continues.  It has been particularly rough on the whole operation.  As a socially-based enterprise which is dependent on the purchase of the products created by the women (largely from US supporters), the lockdown has caused a near total disconnect in that regard. 

Currently the women really struggle just to feed their children.  So Legacy Church gets to step into the gap to assist the women of WEND while we all pray for an end to the pandemic as it currently exists and the adverse impact upon the WEND families in northern Uganda.

Julian Oaks is a small Christian camp ministering to kids from ages 9 and 18 who have been removed from their homes for reasons of abuse or neglect.  With the help of many volunteer counselors these children are able to experience desperately needed love and hope as they are touched by the love of Jesus. 

One-week camps in the summer.  Weekend retreats in the winter.  Plus, a few other gatherings to connect throughout the year.  The counselor/camper ratios are low and personal, sometimes just 1 to 2 or even 1 on 1 with a loving adult.  The relationships started at camp often grow beyond the camp setting into lifelong mentoring friendships.

ECTLC's mission is to provide transitional living and restore lives.  Inspiring people in all communities to make the right decisions through Christ.

Numbers tell the story! Every day, we house, provide three opportunities to eat, and clothe over 450 homeless men, women, and children!

Our business model is unique. Through "Work Therapy" agreements, ECTLC program fees, and employment, ECTLC program members provide 85% of the revenue to cover our operating expenses. Generous donors help fund the 15% deficit in our yearly budget.
 

We have an exciting expansion plan—Building Hope for the Homeless—to share with you. Soon we will add two new buildings, financed with private funds. The two dormitories will house over 100 homeless men and women, allowing us to open up 40 more rooms for homeless families with kids. The number of children will increase from 180 to 250!

Life-changing week for our Middle Schoolers and High Schoolers
Cost to transport our students would be prohibitive for most families
so the students raise funds, through serving at  our Ladies Soiree's, Couples Valentine Dinner,  Carwashes and restaurant fundraisers.  But still need some help!

Many decisions for Christ are made at camp, away from the many distractions.

Transforming Lives

Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered approach to recovery based on 8 principles from the Beatitudes and the 12 steps of regular recovery.  CR gives people a safe place to talk about their personal hurts, habits, and hang-ups. That includes most of us, doesn’t it?
 
Many times our issues are deeper than drugs and alcohol abuse.  So our CR ministry is more than a 12-step program, though it includes much of that approach.  Anger.
Co-dependency.  Pornography.  Abuse.  Food addictions.  Parenting addicts.  Relationship addiction.  Plus, a dozen more!

Legacy's own Ashlea Bloom  has been working for Metro for almost 10 years, we support  her vibrant and life-changing minstry.  Because of Covid the entire ministry has had to pivot and we are praying for afety healing and support at this critical juncture.

​

Metro World Child is a global, faith-based humanitarian organization dedicated to serving children throughout New York City, various urban centers and rural communities around the world.

​

We believe that it is better to build boys and girls and help set their life on a right path at an early age than it is to repair broken men and women years down the road.  We believe that prevention is better than intervention; that reaching the next generation at an early age and introducing them to the love and hope of Christ is the best chance at setting their young life on the right road.

Legacy's own Jimmy Brown works at San Diego State University as a chaplain for the student athletes.  One of the few real blessings of COVID was Jimmy's ability to have unparalleled access to many of the student athletes.  Please keep him in your prayers as he continues to keep the deepen connections made.

Last year alone, partners like you helped expose 325 million people to the gospel! Because Athletes in Action is a donor-supported ministry, everything that we do to encourage and equip athletes is a result of financial gifts from friends and partners like you.

“God has shown us the need to become lifelong supporters of AIA to continue the ministry of reaching the lost for Jesus Christ through sports. It’s one of the best investments for the kingdom of heaven we will ever make.” – ministry partners from Arizona Athletes in Action is a part of Cru. 

We cultivate indigenous leaders to advance Christ-centered communities-of-hope by reaching out in similar language and culture.  TWO by 2 Global Ministries works with ministry sites in Moldova, Crimea, North Caucasus, and Southern Russia/Central Siberia as a new location. Our focus is identifying, preparing, sending, and supporting Turkic-language missionaries to reach other Turkic-language people for Christ. We engage in weekly contact through mobile, largely Christian libraries in the Tatar language, Bible studies and discussions in homes, and other contacts as they can establish them. They also visit schools with Samaritan Purse gift boxes. A significant undertaking is the development of a Crimean Spiritual and Cultural Center – a place to meet and worship for the 8+ Tatar adult leaders, as well as a “safe,” non-church place for non-believers to come, have fun, ask questions, etc.
