Tyler and Kelly Sanderford and their four kids, 21,18,16, and 13, have served in Ukraine for 17 years (All of their kids were dedicated at The Heights in Richardson, TX!). Tyler and Kelly are country leaders for The Navigators. The Sanderfords are currently living in Budapest, Hungary so that the kids to be in school (the school in Kyiv closed due to war) and so that they can be close to the border of Ukraine. Tyler travels once a month to encourage and pray with the people in Ukraine and to visit friends who are struggling with life in the midst of war in the country.  They take in needed things for the people and meet and pray with the believers and encourage them.

The Navigators, they seek to “Advance the Gospel of Jesus Christ and His Kingdom into the nations, through spiritual generations of laborers living and discipling among the lost”. Jesus is King and life on life discipleship is their passion. Seeing Ukrainians doing that with others is the Sanderford’s big dream!!!

The Sanderfords ask that you pray for:

• Faithfulness of the believers in Ukraine during this war. No one knows how it will end
• Continued health and success in crossing the border and going to our brothers and sisters in Christ
• The Lord to open doors for others to travel to Kyiv, once a month, to help encourage the believers in Kyiv and to share their testimonies and pray for the people. Their desire is to take in people with different skills to assist the Ukrainians in their walks with Jesus
