Since the 15th century, many inthe Ukraine have been involved in the occult, alcoholism and atheism. Over 70 years of communism increased this deception. Today there is freedom, but every third Ukrainian has a problem with alcohol and many are still influenced by the occult. Oac staff and teams now go out to these tired and hurting people proclaiming freedom in Christ.
One evening in Zhitomir City, two girls came into an OAC street programme. Both accepted Christ as saviour. Today, they are leaders of a christian youth club and are doing the same programmes on the streets. Asked if they had tru freedom, on said, "yes! Today we are liberated and free in Christ and this freedom excels all possible earthly pleasures."
