Over the years, ORH has always been very blessed by Oleg and Lori Enskyy's good works, giving the Gospel, and church planting. To their credit, they have withstood many hardships, carving out a ministry in a highly religious-dominant area. Today, they are respected and accepted by many in their city.
ORH is thankful to have been a part of this transformation of attitude and acceptance. Through Oleg and Lori, ORH has been able to support feeding of local children, medical seminars for co-dependent mothers with physically challenged children, feeding of families during times of covid 19 closure, and two evangelistic medical clinics. Oleg and Lori boldly give the Gospel and preach the Bible while building their church family.
Read their message about the current crisis in Ukraine, and their intentions to minister to the people of Ukraine.
“Zakarpattia is the only state in the west of Ukraine that was not bombed last night. We do not know why, but God protected our military bases from air attack. My telephone has been beeping with messages and calls all day asking for refuge. Oleg's desire is to turn our church building, a former school, into a refugee facility. We see the Lord leading this way. Please pray that the army will not commandeer the building for barracks. We believe if it is being used for humanitarian aid, they will allow us to stay there. Our apartment will also be a place of refuge for many of our friends and ministry partners from the South and East as they flee the bombing. Oleg is glad of the company as the house gets very quiet when we are not there. We see our church, Holy Trinity Baptist Church, as a force for good in these evil times. We will be able to offer physical comfort and hope as we live out the Gospel. We have great faith that we were put in this position at this time for this Kingdom purpose. May many be saved and come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior through our combined efforts.”
Below are their stated needs which ORH wishes to help meet.
“Church needs:
(All pharmacies, food warehouses, etc have been closed and will be used as strategic reserves for the army; people can get daily amounts of food at the local markets)
1. Medicines brought in from the West, 2. Mattresses and/or cots; 3. Sleeping bags - blankets/sheets/pillows; 4. Food that can be store; 5. Generators; 6. Fuel for generators; …. 8. Extra funds to pay for electricity if it is not turned off. (Chernobyl power plant was just seized by Putin's evil forces.); 9. Funds to put in a showering facility at church; 10. Satellite phone (at present phones, internet, electricity are still up and running)
Thank you for your prayers, love, support, and encouragement.
Any help that you offer our family and ministry would be greatly appreciated. We will be in contact with the Embassy here in Budapest to find out if they can help with delivering humanitarian aid to Ukraine.”
ORH director, Dan Jones, and staff have sent $6000.00 in support of the humanitarian efforts, the Gospel, and the strengthening of the church in Mukachevo.
Pray for the Enskyy family while Lori and children remain in Budapest, and Oleg is in Mukachevo. Both are in difficult situations.
