Nadiya & Artem Vorobyova

Marko, Sofiya

Nadiya first came in contact with Josiah Venture in 2008 through an English camp at Christ Fellowship Church in Lviv, Ukraine. Doing these camps several years in a row opened her heart to the youth in her city. While looking for new ideas for youth ministry, God led her to participate in a Fusion camp in the Czech Republic. Excited about this opportunity in Ukraine, she became a leader for the Fusion ministry in 2014 in her local church there. In seeing how much Josiah Venture helped her church to grow in the area of youth ministry, Nadya desired to help other churches as well. In 2017, she was asked to help JV Ukraine launch the Exit Tour ministry. After a successful launch of three churches partnering with seven schools for the sake of reaching teens with the gospel, Nadya officially joined JV full-time, as part of the Exit Tour and schools teams.

Nadya, her husband Artem, and their two children live in Lviv and serve at Christ Fellowship church. Nadiya and Artem are involved in teenage and youth ministry in their church, and their home is always a place of youth ministry. Since the beginning of the war, Nadiya has been involved in sending medical assistance to people in the active war zone. With the help of their church, Josiah Venture, and church communities, she helps find and send medicine, hemostatic agents, and bandages to those in need. During the first months of the war, Artem transported humanitarian goods from their church to areas in Ukraine that were under fire. He continues to do this now, when it is needed.
