Missions – St. Paul United Methodist Church

Please keep our upcoming Ukraine Mission Trip in your prayers. St Paul has a long-standing ministry in Ukraine. I’m delighted our church serves in this capacity. Some of you constantly ask what you can do to help this ministry.

First, please pray for Ukraine, their citizenry—especially their orphans. Second, if you would like to financially support this ministry, below is a list of some of the needs for the orphans we support.

If you would like to donate to these Ukraine Mission needs, please contact Cindy Shavers
