The Christians at West Fayetteville are thankful for the opportunity to support brother Doug Berry in his efforts in Kremenchuk, Ukraine.

 

Established circa 1992 by Marvin Bryant and other missionaries working with him. Marvin would make three-month trips to Kremenchuk.  The largest church, the Central church of Christ, is about 50 members and is in the city itself.  There are two other churches in neighboring communities that are between 15 and 25 members.

In 1993, Lena Kozlova (of Kremenchuk) came to York College and was instrumental in taking a group of college students back to her Motherland in 1996 to teach in the local school system about America and to teach the Bible.  This ministry has opened many lives to the good news of Jesus!

In the summer of 2000, Doug Berry went on this mission for six weeks with three York College students.  He states that he has been changed forever!  He believes that he must answer this door of opportunity that God has put before him.
