Read the Story about how Brenna’s Home was started, visit Brenna’s Home to see the children, how they are doing, and how our efforts tie into the Tabitha Children’s Program. You can also see other aspects of the ministry in Lutsk in which we participate.
Yulia, age 5, came to to Brenna’s Home in Jauary 2007 from a small village outside of Lutsk. You can follow the transition of this five-year old to Brenna’s Home and she how she is thriving today. See pictures of Halla being baptized on July 1, 2007. and of our visits to Lutsk. Brenna’s Home has served eight different children since its establishment in 2005. There are currently five children in Brenna’s Home.
While our work in Ukraine is through Resurrection Baptist Church in Lutsk, our approach is interdenominational and we obtain support from a wide spectrum of believers, both Protestant and Catholic. We believe showing the love of Christ transcends these denominational boundaries. We welcome your support through prayer and finances. American dollars go far in Ukraine! We also have periodic short-term mission trips and we welcome those who are interested to participate. All donations to The Brenna Engle Foundation are used for direct support for the children. Mission trips are privately funded by participants. Please feel free to contact us with any comments or questions about this ministry.
Community Teaching
Students at the Brendon Montessori School in Poughkeepsie, NY (where Brenna had attended) held a fundraiser for Brenna's Home during February. Rich and Donna recently visited the school and presented information about their recent trip to Ukraine and Brenna's Home. After the talk, the children all gathered in a friendship circle in the gym and sang two songs, followed with a presentation of their fundraising proceeds. You can read the story that appeared in the March 14, 2008 edition of The Weekly Beat here.
