Let us introduce you to the new people!

This is the family of Andrii and Iryna Parkhomenko.

Andrii is a deacon of the Evangelical Church “Emmanuel” and an employee of “Kyiv House of Mercy”. His wife provides cosmetology services.

The year before last, the charitable dining room “Stefania”, which was almost the only way to survive for many homeless and the people who found themselves below the poverty line, was closed in Kyiv.

Andrii and Iryna live next to the former “Stefania”. So they and their friends started cooking at home and feeding those for whom almost the only option to get any food at all is to get it from Andrii and Iryna’s hands.

People gathered, ate, listened to the Bible willingly, thanked, and some of them asked for some shelter. But they had nowhere to be washed, to have their hair cut, nowhere to change their clothes before sending to the shelter, so many people continued to stay on the street.

Then we joined forces and became one team! Now many people have a chance to leave the street and start a new life.

We also came to us with indifferent young people from the Institute of Leadership – they talked well and held a master class for the production of paper defects.
Very pleased that we have such a good generation!
