School History

Dream

We, the Sisters of the Religious Family of the Incarnate Word, have long dreamed of opening a school in Ukraine—one where, through education and nurturing, we can transform the worldly criteria and values into those of the Gospel of Christ.

2014

By a miracle (for only God can work so wondrously), we managed to purchase land and begin building our school. A Ukrainian from England left us his legacy, and this became the foundation of our hope and future.

2019

A community was formed to oversee the construction and development of the school—handling documentation, seeking benefactors, and organizing administration. Only two sisters were initially assigned to this task.

Soon after, the COVID-19 pandemic began, and construction had to be paused.

But God's Providence had other plans. During this time, we realized that we needed to start a “living” school. Near our monastery, six children who regularly asked us for help with their homework inspired us to take action.

2020

Thus, in September 2020, our first school year began with just six children around our monastery table. It was humble, but as God loves to work—like in Bethlehem, where no one expected—our school was born from a small group of children in a simple setting.

As time went on, word spread, and more parents brought their children. By the end of that year, we had grown to 11 students in a new building, generously donated by one of our new benefactors.

2021

In September 2021, three times as many children applied to the school, and we were forced to look for another building. It turned out to be old and dilapidated, so we tried to fix it ourselves and with a few friends all summer... Modestly... but it allowed us to start the new school year with more than 35 children.

2022

We still lacked many things, but the Lord sent another benefactor who helped us find a cozy house—this is where we study today.

2026

Our school has now been running for five years. Currently, we educate 94 children, but only about half of their families can afford to pay tuition. Even with their contributions, covering all school expenses remains a challenge. We rely solely on God's Providence, which constantly sends kind-hearted people to support this mission.
