The Grace Baptist Church in Odessa, Ukraine has had an ongoing outreach to orphans, beginning with a Christian orphanage, which Christians constructed next to their church. Orphans live there in a Christian family setting. This visionary church is also building transition apartments for older orphans. As well, they sponsor Christian camps in summer for orphans. Grace Baptist Church, led by Pastor Igor Bandura, has been a leader in encouraging Baptist families in Ukraine to provide adoption and foster care for orphans.
