Kyiv, Ukraine
Located in the former Soviet Union, Ukraine sits on the borderland between East and West. It is a country torn by the ravages of communism, corruption, and war with Russia, but God is using all these things to open people to the gospel. Across this ancient nation, MTW Ukraine has started a dozen churches that now form their own Presbyterian denomination and have their own seminary, buildings, and numerous ministries. MTW partners with this national denomination to see the church grow and reach further into their region and beyond.
In Kyiv, Ukraine’s capital, the MTW team is helping nationals plant several Presbyterian churches, including an English-speaking international church. Additionally, the Evangelical Reformed Seminary of Ukraine trains pastors and other church leaders with a Reformed biblical worldview to minister in their context. Grounded in the gospel and working to plant Ukrainian churches and equip national Christian leaders, MTW Kyiv aims to foster the growth and expansion of the church throughout Eastern Europe and Central Asia.
