MISSIONARIES ENJOY THE UEC

The UEC exists to promote a living faith in Jesus Christ by meeting educational needs in Ukraine. We fulfill our mission by maintaining the largest circulating theological library in Kyiv and through informal cooperation with local churches and missionaries. Grady Bryan is just such a person. While he served as a missionary and as a university instructor, he used the Center for occasional class meetings, showing videos, and by leaving books on reserve for student research. With some classes of over 100 students, Grady's students kept the Center staff busy this last semester by checking out Bible study materials, reserve books, and videos on the life of Jesus.

Kristina and Ken Gray have recently returned to Kyiv and they immediately began using the Center. Kristina has referred more than twenty students to the UEC from Wisconsin International University and has reserved rooms to meet with students for special study sessions. WIU students also come in search of Bible study materials and other useful resources. Many Kyiv missionaries use the Center's library on a regular basis.

Thanks to your generosity, we are building a vital community resource and allowing Jesus Christ to shine through a practical demonstration of his love.
