Pick a project
The purpose of CFK is to honor God . . .
by providing ways in which individuals and groups can become personally involved in ministry projects, exercising our faith and experiencing God in our lives. Through our acts of faith and obedience, the needs of others are met and God is glorified (Matt . 5:16).
Because of our continued relationships in Ukraine, we have the ability to share about legitimate needs, provide the information needed for a plan of action, and offer follow-up pictures and information. We invite you to choose a one time or ongoing need that you can pray for, share with others, &/or fund. Through your involvement . . .
God will be honored.

Medical needs: There are many unmet medical needs among the children in orphanages as well as those living with their families, simple operations as well as ongoing needed medicines. By adopting an orphanage for its medical needs, you will be able to provide the staff nurse with everyday medicines we take for granted. You will also be alerted of any outbreaks that they need help with. Referral: Chuck & Jan Jenkins ~ therapyprograms@catalystforkids.info
Disabled: “Harmony” is a non-government, Ukraine organization striving to do many projects to meet the needs of the disabled. Distributions of wheelchairs, providing training programs, and equipping a therapy center are just a few of the possible projects waiting for partners in ministry. Contact therapyprograms@catalystforkids.info
