For those who have already been following our news for many years there will be nothing new. It is our 4th time that we hosted a large-scale project like mission week. It always includes 3 basic elements: a creative invitation, lunch lectures in universities and an evening event in a nice venue. Year by year we tried to increase the scale of this project (it shows the success of the week, isn’t it?). In 2014 we focused on one university, in 2015 we already took three, and a month ago we did a mission in 6 universities at the same time.
In Western Ukraine, Easter is a time filled with many traditions, church services, rituals, and fasts. However, ultimately our hope is that students in Ukraine would know that these different traditions point to Jesus Christ!
From March 12-15, 2018, the Kyiv team of CCX Ukraine saw especially clearly how God united the city’s team of students and volunteers and used them to actively preach the Gospel at two universities.
Five years ago, CCX Ukraine introduced a new project– Mission Week. Many different events take place for five days on university campuses, and all events are focused on discussions of frequently asked questions about Christianity. Christian students want and are ready to talk about such topics with their groupmates and friends.
This year’sproject WHATIF…? Pursued these goals: to tell, share and explain why we are Christians, who Jesus Christ is, and what His teaching is all about.
The fourth evangelism Mission Week at Kyiv universities was held during February, 2017. This year we called it “Myth Busters”.
The title speaks for itself: Christian students and speakers were destroying different myths of non-believing students about life, Christianity and God.
Prejudices against faith sounded like this: “All religions lead to Paradise”, “God is against sex” or “God is for weaklings; I was born to suffer”, and even “The Bible is the cruelest book in the world!? How can it be trusted?”
