A father's miracle - Bible distribution in Ukraine

A father's miracle - Bible distribution in Ukraine

For six years, since the war began, we have been visiting the frontlines in East Ukraine. In mid-October, we were there again to distribute Bibles to the military. Children’s Bibles have always been especially popular among them – to bring back to their kids. We read the Bible together with soldiers, pray and give Bibles to those who don’t yet have one. On this visit, a commander explained how two years ago he had asked us to pray for him and his wife to have children, as medically it was impossible, and after we prayed, he had asked for a Children’s Bible in memory of this prayer.

Who we help in Ukraine: three displaced families tell their stories

David Hathaway’s Ministry, working with Philadelphia Church Kyiv, has been supporting displaced persons since the war began in east Ukraine, early 2014. These are the stories of three families who fled to safety. It is estimated that over 2 million have been internally displaced. The front line is approximately 280 miles in length. The conflict in eastern Ukraine has transitioned to a stalemate after it first erupted, but shelling and skirmishes still occur regularly, with frequent escalations in violence. The situation remains unresolved.

Who we help in Israel: three Holocaust survivors tell their stories

David Hathaway first traveled to Israel in the early 1960s, organising the first over-land trip by road from Britain to Israel. From that point, David’s heart was burdened for Israel, seeking to bring blessing to its people, longing to see the fulfilment of Bible prophecy.

Each month we support Russian-Holocaust survivors living in Israel, providing them with practical and spiritual support. These are the stories of three of the recipients.

September Humanitarian Aid Distribution in Israel

During September, over their most holy days, Israel was once again living under lockdown and restriction. Thousands of new coronavirus cases were reported each day, overwhelming hospitals, and Covid-19 deaths were steadily climbing. Fear and depression are gripping the hearts of young and old. However, David Hathaway’s Ministry in Israel stands firmly in faith, continuing to serve and love God’s people.
