Team:
September 2015: ,
The Fraser Valley Group, comprised of nine members and two HFL staff members, departed for Nikopol, Ukraine on a humanitarian relief mission through the long established relationship with Pastors John and Nadya Bokoch and their ongoing work through the Nikopol Baptist Church.
The team provided food hampers and clothing distribution to the widows and impoverished, and also conducted home visits and Bible teachings. Over $50,000 was raised for the purchase of food, medical supplies, youth team equipment and widow care. This was a returning visit for over half the team members, most who visited Nikopol in the Spring 2015 trip.
