Julie has lived in Ukraine since May 2000, serving primarily through English teaching, evangelistic small groups and music ministry. In 2004, she moved to Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine. Kyiv is a large city full of busy workers and students trying to survive in a still-struggling economy. Julie meets some of these people as they go about their day-to-day lives — at the university and music school where she teaches English. As part of the Ukraine missions team, Julie hopes to see a network of simple, small, reproducing churches effectively reaching the lost and making disciples for Jesus Christ.
