Ark Church Construction Update

June 2, 2021

Due to inflation and other additional expenses an additional amount of $25,000 is needed to complete the finishing touches. State regulations have enforced laws to remove the current heating system housed within the church and relocate to the outside of the church. This includes the reworking of all the electrical, the boiler, heating elements and plumbing as well as the erection of housing for it.

Winter Update

March 1, 2021

As we soon transition from Winter to Spring, Ukraine has not escaped the effects of COVID -19. With shortages of medical supplies, the ongoing war, the worsening economy – all this has given rise to many soup kitchens and food stations. In the cold winter weather, people line up for a bowl of soup and a loaf of bread. While in the comfort of our homes, it’s difficult for us to comprehend this, but it is a reality.

A great loss for Ukraine

February 24, 2021

As we were preparing our latest newsletter, I received some shocking and devastating news concerning one of our partners. Pastor Ivan Pryadka of Krasnohorivka, Ukraine (ARK Church) passed away suddenly. As you know, Masters was committed to helping him complete the construction of the church, as it served the community from the very onset of the war in Eastern Ukraine. He was a pillar in the community, known to all. From the first day I met Pastor Ivan, our hearts were knit together. He was a man after God’s heart, a man of humility, compassion, integrity, a true servant of our Lord.

Masters is still committed to Ark Church. We covet your prayers for the family especially at this time- and for the continued ministry (supplying bread, pasta, food packages) to the needy in the town and the surrounding villages.

Stan Watrich and the Master’s Team.
