My name is Lajla (Lyla) Raske. Starting June of 2025, I began serving with YWAM Kyiv in Ukraine with a mission to share the Gospel with the people of Ukraine and to serve wherever God calls me. In 2025 with the support of many people, I was able to serve in Ukraine for 6 months. Since then, I have moved to Ukraine! 

During my time in Ukraine, the Lord has opened many opportunities for me to serve! 

Some ministry focuses and serving opportunities have included:

• Sharing the Gospel

• Serving in kid camps

• Evangelism through individual conversations 

• English Club

• Ministry near the frontlines

• A variety of kids ministry and more! 

As I enter this next season, God is leading me into a new area of ministry as I begin joining staff for Discipleship Training School (DTS)! This will give me an opportunity to disciple others and serve alongside staff and students in ministry! 

It is such an honor and incredible opportunity to be able to serve with YWAM Ukraine and be a part of what God is doing in Ukraine! 

I cannot even begin to express my thanks to God and to all who have supported me for helping my dream of being a missionary come to life!

I would love to ask for you to partner with me through financial support and prayer!

I need $800 a month to cover:

• Housing costs

• Food

• Transportation (bus fare, trains, and future flights)

• Ministry costs 

• Emergency fund 

• Ukrainian language classes

Currently, I have met $550 / $800 of my monthly goal. 

If you’d like to commit to being a monthly supporter, or giving a one-time donation, please pray about an amount. You can give that amount here!

Your support means the world to me! Each prayer is heard, and your support is used for His Kingdom. By your prayer and support, you are with me as I go, wherever I go!

Thank you! Your giving does not go unnoticed.

Lajla
