We want to briefly share with you the events through which God guides us – His grace and mercy has sustained us.
Svitlana K lived a peaceful life with her husband, daughter and son in a village in the Z region.
There was the constant droning of planes and distant explosions. Our child was but 3 months old
Good afternoon if it is so! My name is V and it’s already been 32 days since I left my beloved husband, most of my family and the apartment for which I had been putting off for many years, denying myself everything – in a word, everything that I loved and worked for
L. D. is a 60 year Ukrainian woman. When the war began she was living in the Donetsk region. On April 6, 2022 she was walking down a street when the shelling began. L. lost her left leg and her right arm was seriously injured.
N. S and His wife T are from Mariupol Ukraine. It was dangerous a place during last 8 years because line of war was very close – just 20 km. 8 years ago, Ukrainian army pushed Russians back and they could live in the city.

The youth of a city in Ukraine were filled with joy at the prospect of having a week of summer camp. In the current circumstances of war, hopelessness, and uncertainty, one of the youngest attendees took it upon himself to create this THANK YOU sign.
In speaking with our partners, several major cities have been hit including Borispol Airport in Kiev. The Military has invaded from the south (Crimea), West, North & South. The people are standing strong and really need our prayers and support.. A 40 ft container on route with soup mix and aid now has to be rerouted because of the blockade in the Black Sea.
However, food products can be purchased in Ukraine and we are still able to send funds. WE/UKRAINE NEED YOUR PRAYERS AND SUPPORT NOW. You can make your donation through our website on our SUPPORT page at or call our office at 905.602.1350. Please share with all...God bless you!

There are numerous students at the L'viv Theological Seminary that require outside assistance in covering their expenses, tuition etc. Some are orphans, some are from the war zone and some are from large families. (Masters has supported these causes over the years) Below is an email from one of our partners in Ukraine.
Rest and camps are very important for people with physical impairments. On July 6-10, the graduates of Lviv Theological Seminary held a camp for young people with hearing impairments at the seminary. There were 30 participants of age 15-23. We had a wonderful opportunity to talk in detail about what is the true Christian like.
Taking to account psychological and physical issues of the participants, we had Bible lessons that included discussions about Church, love to our neighbors, and obedience to God. We also discussed topics that are relevant to young people.
We thank God for this given opportunity and pray for abundant blessings on everyone, who made it possible for us and the deaf to have such a blessed time together. We appreciate all this help from Master’s Foundation who create for us this great possibilities to be in camp.

COVID continues with its devastating effects but, in spite of it, God is working. In the midst of all this hopelessness, there is hope and God is the source and center of that hope.
It is now the seventh year that Ukraine bears the brunt of hostilities in the east. In this war, over 14,000 have been killed, 1.4 million became internal refugees and the number of those affected stands at 5.2 million. Populations living near the front-line daily face conflict-related hazards such as shelling and mine contamination. Stories come across our desk written by the people that we support, people who visit the needy and the broken. Many of them are heart breaking.

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.

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.

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.

Thank you and your entire team for your open hearts and financial and prayer support! I am sending you photos about our visits to children and the preparation of children for school! Thanks to you, together we were able to help 40 children displaced from the ATO zone who live in the city of Lutsk, we helped 10 children from poor families, visited and donated help to children from a boarding school in Rozhyshche. There are about 100 children here. We also bought diapers, a tonometer (blood pressure machine). We also went to the children's rehabilitation center in the city of Kovel! The children are very grateful, the directors are very grateful, all the children wanted to hug you personally! ❤ In this very difficult time, we thank you for not staying away! We bless you with the name of Jesus Christ! We pray for you! Special thanks for helping us pay for the four months rent for the gym! Thank you very much! We are looking forward to your visit!
With grateful hearts and love, Dmitry, children and team!

In February of 2020 Master’s launched a YouTube program with Pastor Fedir Lebediuk of Lutsk, Ukraine called “Good Morning Ukraine.
The success has been overwhelming! During 2020 approximately 200,000 viewed this program. One week had over 40,000 hits. 26.3 % of the viewers were in the 18-24 age bracket, 29.7 % in the 45-54 age bracket. 63.7% viewers were from Ukraine with 14.8% from Russia and others from Kazakstan and Germany. We covet your prayers and support for Pastor Fedir in this venture.
June 2, 2020 / The families of the “Hearts of Love” Charitable Foundation are extremely grateful to your organization for the opportunity to receive extremely tasty products from Canada.
We waited a long time and prayed that the Lord would help us go through all the procedures at the border and that there would be no obstacles to transporting food for those who need it so much. After all, so many people have worked to grow and cook with love and diligence, investing money, time and work. Cooking dishes seem even tastier from understanding this.
This extraordinary care of the Lord for his children reveals even more the character and love of the Lord. Our prayers of thanksgiving to the Lord for all who care so much for our children.
The children in our Center really enjoyed the potatoes, which they eat with great speed and good appetite. From the vegetable mixture we prepare vegetable stew, which is nutritious and tasty. Some children eat vegetables raw, choosing what they like best. We use dried fruits to prepare a drink that is useful and tasty.
Having received food, our problem with food in the center has decreased. We used to buy food at the expense of parents, now this burden on families has decreased, it is especially important now when the families we take care of count every kopek. This is a very difficult period in our country, and it is now that the Lord has cared for children. This is extremely touching.
Most of the products we received were left in the Heart of Love Center for children's nutrition, and some were given to the families who are most of all in need. Our mothers express their gratitude and best wishes to all who care for our children. !!!! May the Lord bless and fulfill all your needs.
