Widows Ministry

Most of the widows we are serving found a job and are providing for their children. The widows who have recovered a bit help new widows cope with their grief, give advice on necessary documents and other support. Three of the widows are volunteering now, many are active in helping with this ministry.  

We focus on the widows who are underprivileged, those whose husbands died in the war zone, but have no proof that they were killed in war action. These ladies have no help from the government as the war widows.

Another category we work with is the mothers of the soldiers who died in the war zone. They are also in need of support and counseling.

The ministry includes:

  • Monthly meetings with a large group of widows (30) since 2015 (Bible study, counselling, group therapy)
  • War orphans program twice a year
  • Ten day retreat in a rehab center for 2-3 underprivileged widows, twice a year
  • Bible study, counseling, medical treatment
  • Three day retreat at the Lake Svityaz for a group of widows (20 people and 2 volunteers)
  • Face to face meetings with widows for building relations and better understanding of their needs.

Svitlana Sharaevska is responsible for widows’ ministry. Though she has a disability because of disseminated sclerosis, she finds time and strength to serve others. Each month she spends a certain amount of money on medicine. It would be great to get some support for her.
