David and Sharon Kealy
spent most of the 1990's living in Ukraine. Christian Media Associates was established as the first charity in Ukraine. Staff recorded the dramatized New Testament in several languages and recorded music to be used in churches along with radio programs for Christian radio stations as they were established across the former U.S.S.R. We established a radio curriculum and taught at the Donetsk Bible College in Eastern Donetsk. Kyiv was home as we established Christian radio stations across what became known as the Commonwealth of Independent States, (CIS). Now some 30 years later Russia seeks to reestablish the countries they ruled and known as as the U.S.S.R.
We celebrated with them when they gained their independence in 1991. We celebrated with them when they sent Ukrainian athletes to represent their country to the Atlanta Olympic games in 1996.
Ukrainians admired and respected Poland in part because they had successfully transitioned from control by Russia, Now millions them have fled as refugees to safety in Poland because Russia has staged war to retake control of Ukraine. Our ministry Partner in Poland is helping them as they migrate to safety. They are being fed, clothed, housed and loved.
Our role now from afar is to provide financial help at a time of tremendous need. We know and trust and have worked closely with CCM Media our partner in Poland and trust them to share the love of Jesus in meaningful ways.

We continue ministry as we stay connected with our partners around the world;
The global pandemic

This is a very urgent need. Everyday we are seeing more and more people enter desperate situations. This food sharing program has proven to be very effective, especially for those who are struggling in the tourism sector.

Help during a time of need
Preparing rice bags
|
Providing a helping hand in a real time of need is something, we with your help, are able to do.
Your gifts are sent to support our Partner missions during this COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to support five different ministry mission partners for them to spend where needed most. And the need remains great as the pandemic continues. Their response is tremendous and heartwarming. |
You give, ministries are blessed. People are fed at a time when pastors are without work because they cannot go to work at the jobs they hold. Their churches are small and they work sometimes several jobs to make ends meet. Businesses are closed and they cannot feed their families.
Their response:
Indonesia
"Praise the Lord. I am in tears reading your email. We just finish praying with staff to help 1,000 pastors who lost their income due to covid 19. Your email is the answer of many thousands. Pastors. Thank you very much for your heart to help."
Liberia
“I need you to understand that you did not only provide food to these needy people, but you also gave HOPE at such a critical and uncertain time caused by the Coronavirus outbreak.
There were no extra funds in our budget to meet this unexpected need, as residents of this community called upon VOX Liberia, urgently asking for food assistance . . . . we are doing another batch of food supplies to families in need and also supporting those families of volunteers who help during our relief outreach.
Thank you for supporting us, its ongoing work and your funds help us keep that kind of work.
This would not have happened without the prayers, encouragement and instant financial support of friends like you.”
God bless you.
Here is what Pastor John K. Somu, one of the beneficiaries had to say: ’This is something I didn’t expect! I am very thankful to the (VOX Liberia Christian) radio station for this help. I now have what I need to feed my family for a couple of weeks. We as pastors are going to meet and commit ourselves to provide fuel for VOX Radio station every month.’

In LIBERIA our partners' vision is to transform youth in Liberia, providing them with information, skills and support to develop a sense of worthwhileness in their lives. It includes VOX Radio, Christian radio focused on youth, VOX Academy a training ministry, and VOX Share, a humanitarian ministry.
In INDONESIA, you support orphans at their orphanages and widows with training so they can more easily support themselves and family. Pray about supporting Poguwatu a leprosy village on Sumba, Indonesia where we are helping with a water system and a building for teaching children and a meeting place for their new church.

In AFGHANISTAN, you can support a one-year course to enable illiterate and semi-literate women to start their own small businesses.
In NEPAL a Green House project at a church in Dhase. We were thrilled when soon after we furnished the funds for the well they sent photos of a field of vegetables and even a green house.
In GHANA a yearlong sewing school where women study the Bible and learn sewing & jewelry making. The machines are operated by hand. After a year, the girls received the sewing machine enabling them to earn a living and help the household financially

Poguwatu Village Sumba, Indonesia

Helping Leprosy Villagers in Poguwatu Village to build a Church
a School for Early Childhood Education and Provide a Clean Water project |
|
This village has an interesting story. For years, this village has been isolated due to incidents of leprosy. The village itself is so remote due to its social stigma that there is no road to get there. They have been left behind by society with no resources or clean water. We funded a water well at their Orphanage in Sumba, and their staff found out about this village.
The Mercy team flew out from Denpasar to West Sumba and walked for an hour and a half through the mountains carrying 100 pairs of shoes, food, and solar radios to get to the people of this village. |
|
This water collection tank is the first of six being built in Poguwatu Village by our partner Mercy Indonesia. Your financial help is needed to help the people in this place - an isolated village.
|
Pastor Paulus said, ”It brought such joy to our hearts to see the 100 children in the village with smiles on their faces having never received a gift like this, some never having owned a pair of shoes in their lives. We can't describe how touched we were to see the children receive this for the first time.” Many did not even know how to tie their shoes.
|
Last August our partner, the founder/director Pastor Paulus met with the Mayor of the region and asked if Mercy Foundation could help this village to which he responded positively. Land is offered in a grant to build the needed building and water system. Already the land has been allocated.
|
|
Now with this permission, the focus of Mercy Indonesia Foundation's program is to establish a child care center, church, and build a well for clean water in the Poguwatu Village.

They evangelize using media, operating Bible Schools, starting churches, teaching leadership development, and meeting health and social needs in a variety of creative ways that are culturally sensitive.
What we do:
We provide financial support to ministries who successfully
share God's love.
