We have prepared a recent update for our ministry leaders in Ukraine. The devastation is immense and the loss is unimaginable. BMI has conducted ongoing ministry for over a 50 years in Ukraine and Russia. We are doing what we can to help because of many of you who faithfully pray and give!

As you probably know, Ukraine is suffering an incomprehensible tragedy. While the world watches, their people are being tortured by the incredible assault instigated by Vladimir Putin. You may know that we have worked in Russia and Ukraine for over 30 years!  We have many ministry partners and friends in both countries.  Jonathan Burnham travels to the region almost every year.  

Our Regional Director of Eastern Europe, Dr. Vitaly Sorokun, and his wife have suffered immense loss. They had to leave their home, the church they built, their family because their city of Kharkiv, the second largest in Ukraine, is under incredible bombardment. They sheltered for a while in the church basement, but the bombing became so intense, they bravely made it to the train station and were able to travel 30 hours by train to the much quieter western Ukraine.  Dr. Vitaly pastored a church of international students who all made it safely out of Ukraine at the beginning of this war. 

They are still in danger; however, the bombardment is much less in this region.  They do not think they will ever be able to return to their home, and it may not even be there if they are able to return.  

Our Women’s Ministry Director, Nadia Morokhovets continues to shelter in her church basement in Kharkiv with her husband and other parishioners.  They bravely gather food even amongst the bombing to take care of the members of the church.  The suffering they are enduring is incredible.  They do not think they will have a city when this is all over, and truthfully they have no confidence they will live through this. 

We ask that you pray and fast for our friends and all the people of Ukraine. If you would like to Donate to them and others who they help, you can go to our DONATE tab for instructions.  Or, our Facebook page has a link to our Go Fund Me.  100% of any donation goes to the people of Ukraine.  

Our trust is in God Alone.

RUSSIA, UKRAINE, BELARUS

With careful planning and caution, Jonathan has begun traveling again. He conducted five conferences this fall in Ukraine, Russia and Turkey.  Multiple training events are planned throughout 2022. In January, Jonathan will hold 3 events in Africa. Our Regional Directors, Ministry Partners and Women’s Ministry Directors have also been busy this year continuing online training and live training where possible. We have highlighted just a few of these events in pictures.   Thank you for your partnership and prayers! 

 

 

New Regional Director for Russia: 

We are excited to announce that Rev. Sergey Naboychenko will lead the BMI mentorship movement in Russia. We have known him since 2014. Sergey was a former aeronautical engineer who became ordained as a pastor in 2000. He is a gifted teacher who is well qualified and thoroughly trained in the BMI materials. 

Pictured here Sergey and his wife Diana with Jonathan Burnham:

 

Other Updates from the Region:

Call him “Dr. Dr. !” Dr. Vitaly Sorokun, BMI Regional Director for Eastern Europe, received an honorary DMin degree from Irpin Bible Seminary in Ukraine. Vitaly already has an earned doctorate in international law! We are so thankful for his life and how the Lord has blessed him with such a keen mind and a warm heart for God!

BMI has developed a special curriculum for women focused on mentorship.  Women are included in all of our training as well as special courses designed for women.  In Turkey of this year, we brought together women from Ukraine, Belarus and Russia to introduce this curriculum.  

South Asia:  The pandemic has increased the scope of Rita Kabo’s ministry to reach many Nepali diaspora populations in the UAE, Bhutan, Hong Kong and even Australia!  

 

Eastern Europe:  We are so thankful for our Women’s Ministry Director, Nadia Morokhovets.  Nadia is recently recovering from a serious cancer, and the prognosis is very good!  Even in the midst of her illness, Nadia has been ministering to and teaching women!

BMI has a new Regional Director for Africa!  Medical doctor, Dr. Lincoln Chirochierwa, will be introduced further as the year goes on, but he will begin his new role in January.   Lincoln was trained as a medical doctor in Kharkov, Ukraine, and attended Vitaly Sorokun’s church while there.  Vitaly mentored him, and they are special friends. Lincoln has been thoroughly trained in the BMI curriculum and has a special heart for mentorship multiplication.  We are blessed to have him conduct training throughout Africa.   Lincoln and his new wife, Melisa, live in Malawi, Africa.
