Media Outreach in Ukraine
War leaves wounds that are not always visible. Across Ukraine, many people are carrying grief, fear, exhaustion, displacement, and the trauma of loss. Families have lost homes. Children have grown up under the sound of sirens. Soldiers, widows, the elderly, and displaced communities are facing emotional and spiritual burdens that practical aid alone cannot fully address.
In response to this urgent need, Great Commission Media Ministries has partnered with Ukrainian Christian psychiatrists and psychologists to develop and distribute Recovery from Trauma, a Christ-centred PTSD and trauma-healing resource created for people suffering in the midst of war. Rooted in Psalm 23, the book centres on the truth that God is our Shepherd, the One who restores the soul. It offers biblical hope, practical guidance, real-life stories of healing, and next steps for continued care. It does not minimize pain or offer easy answers. Instead, it gently points readers toward the healing presence of God, reminding them that their suffering is seen, their lives matter, and hope is still possible in Christ. Recovery from Trauma is written by experienced Christian trauma specialists and grounded in Scripture and biblical counselling principles. Through trusted local churches, chaplains, and humanitarian outreach partners, it is being placed into the hands of people who need comfort, prayer, and a path toward healing. The need is enormous. Millions of Ukrainians have been displaced, and many are living with the deep emotional and spiritual effects of war. Churches are meeting people who are searching for peace, purpose, and restoration. As trauma spreads, so does the need for compassionate, Christ-centred care. Expanding the distribution of Recovery from Trauma is a major focus for GCMM in 2026, helping more Ukrainians receive biblical hope for the hidden wounds of war.

GCMM reaches Ukrainian-speaking audiences through a number of YouTube channels featuring interviews, video messages, worship music, testimonies, and programmes that speak directly into the realities of war. These programmes address the questions many Ukrainians are asking: Where is God in a time of war? Can God bring peace to a wounded heart? How can Christian chaplains bring comfort on the front lines? Does God still hear our prayers? In 2025, social media outreach received over 10 million views, helping people encounter biblical hope in the middle of trauma, loss, and uncertainty.
Alongside digital media, GCMM has helped distribute more than 250,000 copies of Journey Home, placing Gospel-centred resources into the hands of people across Ukraine through trusted local partners, churches, chaplains, and humanitarian outreach channels. This printed outreach has opened doors for encouragement, prayer, and deeper conversations about faith in Christ, especially among people facing loss, displacement, and uncertainty.

GCMM’s work in Ukraine is not media alone and not aid alone. It is Gospel proclamation joined with practical compassion.
Through UkraineAid, GCMM continues to help deliver food, medical supplies, generators, wood-burning stoves, vehicles, and other essential support to vulnerable families and communities affected by the war. Through media outreach and printed resources, that practical care is accompanied by prayer, Scripture, and the message of Christ’s love. This integrated approach allows people to receive help for today and hope for eternity.
“Amid the destruction around us and the wounds in our hearts, thank you for your songs that bring peace and comfort to our souls.”
For many viewers, a song, testimony, interview, prayer, or printed resource becomes a doorway to hope. In a time when so much has been taken, the message of Jesus reminds people that their lives still matter to God.
See how God is using media & compassion to bring hope across borders and into hard-to-reach places.

Five more ambulances and an off-road vehicle have reached Ukraine, and 500 wood-burning stoves are going to families as winter approaches.

For 50 years, GCMM has trusted God to do what human strength alone cannot accomplish. From the first disciples to ministry today, the Great Commission reminds us that the mission is vast, but God provides the power to carry it forward.

GCMM helped support two children’s camps in Ukraine, giving children living through war a safe place to play, express their fears, receive care, and experience prayer and encouragement.
