HEATING POINTS

Every year, with the onset of cold weather, the Christian Mission "New Life" sets up mobile warming stations. For people who find themselves on the streets due to difficult life circumstances, these tents become not just a temporary shelter, but a real lifeline and a place where they can find warmth, support, and hope for a better future. What do the warming centers offer? In the winter cold, each tent is equipped with everything necessary for basic survival and comfort. Inside, people can expect: Warmth and rest: There are stoves, tables, benches, and comfortable sleeping places where people can warm up and sleep peacefully. Hot meals: Every day, visitors receive hot lunches and tea to help them regain their strength. Basic supplies: The mission provides clean and warm clothing and shoes for those in need. Medical assistance: First aid is available on site, and referrals to hospitals are provided if necessary. Spiritual support: Every evening, ministers and pastors share testimonies and the Word of God. This encourages people to think about change, and many decide to go to social adaptation centers to start a new life. How and where does it work? Similar centers operate every year in Odesa, Kyiv, and Zaporizhzhia. They work around the clock thanks to fruitful cooperation with the State Emergency Service (SES) and local police. Depending on the location and weather conditions, between 50 and 300 people visit each center every day. Point of Resilience In addition to traditional warming centers for the homeless, with the start of full-scale war, the Mission deployed a large "Point of Resilience" on Kulikovo Field Square in Odesa. The huge tent can accommodate 150 people. Local residents and displaced persons can warm up, charge their phones, use free Wi-Fi, drink hot tea with cookies, and feel safe and comfortable even during the longest blackouts. Impressive statistics for 12 years of work: 115,000 people received vital support. 601,310 hot meals were distributed to those who were hungry. 130,000 liters of hot tea warmed those who were cold. 80,236 people underwent fluorography and HIV/AIDS testing. 4,620 people received first aid on site, and 1,615 were hospitalized. 3,412 people were inspired to change their lives and went to social rehabilitation centers for treatment. These tents are not just a place to hide from the bitter cold. For many, they are a place to find love and the beginning of a journey from despair to recovery.
