Highlights of our second mission to Poland & Ukraine:
June 5 - July 3
Lauren & Matt in Ukraine with some of the Team from The Ukrainian Dream
Utilizing our first mission experience in April, our second mission focused more heavily on relationship building, so that:
we could develop a greater understanding of the needs of people and cultivate a more in-depth knowledge of Ukrainian culture and societal nuances, as a whole.
we could more create a network of long-term support to ensure the efforts of our partners are sustained.
Our Team Leader, Lauren Filbeck, arrived in Lublin June 5, and Matt joined in-country on June, 24. Together, this dynamic duo continued to work with our local partners in Lublin, and drove themselves across the border to meet our other partners in western Ukraine.
In addition to stewarding over $28,000 in funding,
We connected our partners in Lublin with The Outreach Foundation and other faith-based, American supporters.
