In February of 2015 we had our first annual week long EnglishUp! Event. The response was phenomenal and we’re planning another one for the coming summer.
You do NOT have to be an English teacher to get involved with this! We need English speakers to lead presentations, activities, discussion groups, mingle, and invite the students out to lunch! This is an excellent way for the local ministry of MIA to make new contacts and establish relationships with many unbelievers. Check out the EnglishUp! website.
Last year the event consisted of a morning and an evening session Mon-Fri of 2 hours each. We wrapped it up with a city quest and a costume party on Saturday themed “Nations of the World!” The winners of the quest and the costume party won some pretty cool prizes.
In the summer of 2016 (exact dates and more details will be available by the end of October 2015) we are planning to do it again!
If you are interested in visiting Ukraine for this amazing opportunity you can apply here.
Costs for the Ukrainian students attending the event are kept to a minimum.
There is a considerable financial need to cover the expenses. If you would like to be involved in a financial way, please consider a one time contribution.
