As the fight for power and control of Ukraine continues, churches, organisations, and individuals are committed to providing material and spiritual aid to both refugees abroad and communities within Ukraine. One such ministry that continues to bring life in this way is Good Works Mission, a Polish umbrella organisation of churches and charities.

From the beginning, our goal has been not only to offer products to anonymous recipients, but to build lasting relationships and support specific communities. Lifewords resources are an important part of this work – Bible resources are offered at the Good Centre and are included with every food bag that we distribute in Ukraine.

The ministry of Good Works Mission involves taking practical aid into Ukraine as well as supporting Ukrainians in Poland – helping them find accommodation at the beginning of the war, settle into churches, and integrate their young people into education.

Their Good Centre in Warsaw is a support project for refugees, providing daily assistance, including food, clothing, and material support to over 100 people every day.

They also run regular group therapy sessions, Polish language classes, sessions for seniors, and last year over 500 people received medical help from doctors from the USA as part of the International Medical Relief project.

The Good Centre also serves as an organisational base for humanitarian convoys to Ukraine where over 50 volunteers have been involved in regular trips, dedicating their time and energy to deliver essential support directly to Ukraine.

Building relationships and offering people spiritual hope is key at the centre, and Lifewords regularly supplies Ukrainian Bible resources that offer comfort, hope, and the message of God's presence amid suffering.

Yana, from Zaporizhzhia, is a regular visitor to the centre, she shares: "I moved to Poland a year after the full-scale war began. To say I was in despair is an understatement. One day, when I received a hygiene package at the centre, I saw that there were some booklets inside that talked about God. I was very intrigued. What was written in the booklet greatly encouraged me."

The work of Good Works Mission represents the heart of what Lifewords strives for – a partnership of hands and hearts bringing light to dark times. Radek and his team’s commitment to delivering aid and words of hope reflects the incredible impact that individuals and organisations can have when driven by faith and compassion.

In the midst of unimaginable hardship, it is often a word of hope and encouragement that strengthens the spirit. Lifewords Bible resources, in the hands of Lifebringers like Radek, bring hope and comfort to those yearning for peace.
