Reports and testimonies from David Hathaway's ministry across Ukraine, Central Asia, Eastern Europe, Israel and Britain.
David has just spent four days on the Ukrainian frontline. In Kharkiv and Donetsk regions we visited villages destroyed by the Russian army, met with the people still living there, and with military at their posts. We brought humanitarian packages for the needy, and practical gifts to assist the military. And most importantly, David brought a message of encouragement to all, preaching Christ and praying with the physically and emotionally sick. On the Sunday 500 packed the church in Slovyansk.
On Sunday 15 September, unbelieving Kazakhs filled the building, having travelled from all over the vastness of Kazakhstan, some more than 2,000 miles, by plane, by train, by bus, accompanied by believers who had invited them. Rarely have we been in such a vibrant, receptive, joy-filled, Spirit-filled meeting! Kazakhs poured forward to receive Christ in response to David’s Gospel message, and miracles of healing happened all over the building. God’s Power was unrestricted!
7th National Day of Prayer for Ukraine, 22 June 2024, with 8000 in attendance. This is the 3rd year of the full-scale Russian Invasion of Ukraine. Even as the Prayer was taking place, a power cut or incoming missile attack could have closed the meeting at any moment... But praise God there was no incident.
On 9th May David called an historic Day of Prayer for the Republic of Georgia. Over 1000 pastors, leaders, worshippers, intercessors and youth of almost every evangelical denomination, including ethnic Kurdish and Iranian Churches, packed the prayer venue, standing room only, to pray on behalf of the nation – for the unity, freedom and peace that can only be found in Jesus. From Georgia we went to Vanadzor, the third largest city in Armenia. David came to encourage the church.
On 10th June, as President Zelenskyy launched Ukraine’s long-awaited Counteroffensive – the most critical and final phase of the largest and most dangerous armed conflict in Europe since WWII – we held the 8th National Day of Prayer for Ukraine. The Heads of every Christian Denomination gathered in Bucha to pray for Total Victory.
I left for Ukraine on Tuesday January 3rd. The only way is to fly to Poland, then go by car across the Polish and Ukrainian borders, then into Lviv. I then travelled the 350 miles by car to Kyiv. I met church and military leaders and chaplains on the Saturday, preaching to over 1000 in my very dear friend Boris’s Messianic Congregation. Then back to Lviv for the Day of Prayer in a large church building, worshipping with, and preaching to, 2500 on Sunday evening.
