About the Ministry
Alexander Abramov and his ministry team established hope, training, and encouragement to churches of Ukraine by conducting theological seminars across the country. In wartime, Alex continues his ministry of teaching and encouragement using technology. His deep understanding of Russia and Ukraine helps him to serve as a bridge and to teach God’s Word in a sensitive and insightful way. Alex presents theological, biblical topics, helping leaders apply them to the needs of their communities. Alex especially desires to reach churches in small, rural areas, where access to seminary education is not as prevalent. North American support and partnership will help Alexander continue to uplift Ukrainian churches in dire need of teaching and encouragement.
Ministry Focuses
Meet the Leader: Alexander Abramov
Alex was born in Russia and raised in a Christian home, where he heard the gospel from a young age. He trusted Christ in his youth.
Alex’s passion has been theological education and so he taught at a seminary in Ukraine for many years. But as the number of seminaries grew in the country, his began to see a decline in students. So, Alex and one other seminary professor began his ministry conducting theological seminars across Ukraine as a way to bring the teaching to those who wouldn’t otherwise attend seminary. With his combined understanding of Russia and Ukraine, Alex is uniquely qualified to come alongside Ukrainian pastors and leaders to equip and encourage them. He has a special passionn for engaging churches and individual believers in prayer.
Since the war in Ukraine impacted their lives and ministries, Alex and Luba have pivoted to minister in other ways. Alex enjoys opportunities for online Bible teaching with international gatherings of believers. Having walked through such deep valleys as a Russian-Ukrainian couple, Alex has developed a real passion for teaching about the power of prayer.
Alex is married to Luba, who led a Live Global project in the Ukraine that ministers to mothers. Now Luba continues to minister to pregnant and new mothers in North America.
