LifeNets Orphans and Street Children Program
in Vinogradov, Ukraine

LifeNets provides funding for a soup kitchen to feed about 40 street children and orphans in Vinogradov, Ukraine. The children are either orphans or from negligent or otherwise dysfunctional parents. Some children are from families so poor that there is simply not enough money for basic nutrition.  They are cared for by pastor Vasyl Polichko and his wife Irina who have completely given themselves over to caring for these children. Below are updates about our program.

In June 2006 a party of four of us from Indianapolis, Indiana visited the LifeNets sponsored Light of Love Mission for Street Children in Vinogradov, Ukraine.  Katherine Rowland (pictured on the right with four of the children) was one of those people. Katherine has exceptional sensitivity and compassion for the vulnerable. Visiting this LifeNets project was a highlight of the entire trip to Ukraine. Please see Katherine's story and photos.  We want to thank all those who support this project that LifeNets is sponsoring and now going into its sixth year.
