SOFIA KEDRUK
"Campus Ukraine" Ministry
about me
Hello! My name is Sofia and I serve in CRU (currently in Kyiv, Ukraine). To be more specific in its student ministry called "Campus Ukraine".
I have been serving the students of Ukraine for 7 years now and I believe that God will continue to use me to share His kingdom.
I believe that I'm called by God to glorify Him through Great Commission (sharing Gospel and discipleship) among students.
God has put on my heart a desire to see more changed by Him hearts of students and I want to grow youth which in the nearest future will influence its surrounders (friends, colleagues, family and church).
For two years I served in the Lviv team, and for 4 years I have been working with students in the Kyiv-South team, the next few years I will be a co-leader in the Kyiv-Center team.

about our mission
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you"
Matthew 28:19-20
Mission has been founded in 1951 in USA as "Campus Crusade for Christ" (CRU) by Bill & Vonette Bright. They started ti reach students for Christ and have decided to dedicate their whole life to this ministry. Now CRU exists in 191 countries of the world.
In Ukraine this ministry exists since 1991 and is famous as "Ukraine for Christ". Besides student ministry there are few others:
Family Life
Athletes in Action (for sportmen)
Cross Roads (for teachers)
Leader Impact (for businessmen)
Global Church Movement

vision, principles and goals
our vision is to build spiritual movements among students of Ukraine in partnership with christian youth
win - build - send
our goal - join believers among students to local churches
We want to see them as active members of Christ's Body, responsible for their surrounding.
Spiritual multiplication
God has used and is still using our mission for changing big amount of hearts to spread His Kingdom.
At one point mine heart became one of this.
Also, God even has given me an opportunity to see as He changed few students from my university through my witnessing.

why students?
Students are those, who are on the stage of active forming of their worldview and character. Those, who are studying today, tomorrow are going to work in different structures and organizations, therefore we see a great need to give them an opportunity to start alternative way of building their lives with God.
In Ukraine there are around 966 universities in which there are around 2,5 millions of students, which is 4.8% of population of our country.
There are around 400 students and volunrteers involved in the movement of evangelism and discipleship
team work
We work in teams.
This helps us to support each other, encourage, reach goals together, work as united mechanism - Christ's Body.
Currently there are 7 teams within Ukraine (in different parts of Ukraine) who work so that each student could hear the Good News.
This is our team in Kyiv - with these people I will be work during next years and will be serving in upcoming one.
Projects
During the year we organize a lot of local projects and a few which are all over Ukraine due to which we have an opportunity to share Gospel for a lot of people and assimilate students with christian community.

we can't reach these goals on our own..
"Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
Matthew 9:37-38
that's why I invite you to my ministry partners team!
what does it take to be a ministry partner?
Ministry partners are involved prayerfully and financially.
PRAY FOR FRUITFUL WORK
This ministry will not have success without God's people praying for it (James 5:16).
I'm looking for a team that will commit to regularly pray for fruitful work and for the Spirit to move in a mighty way in our ministry.
I will provide regular updates on my ministry and ways you can pray.
You can see the example of prayer letter here.

INVEST IN THE KINGDOM
A great way to invest in missions is through financial giving. As a missionary, I raise support to cover my personal and ministry expenses overseas. What I love about this is giving others a chance to experience the blessing of being a part of God's Story overseas.

I am raising monthly support. Monthly support covers my personal and ministry expenses.
My goal is start to serve in September. For this to happen I need to be 100% supported. Now I have 65% of amount.
