You’re Invited: Instep Ministries Annual Banquet

Shady Maple Banquet Hall
Thursday, December 4th at 6:00 PM

We’re delighted to welcome Vlad and Anna Ovsiienko as our guest speakers this year. Originally from Ukraine, Vlad and Anna moved to Poland eight years ago to plant a church as missionaries. Prior to that, they served as youth leaders in Poltava, Ukraine. Today, they are elders at EKKLESIA Church in Warsaw, which ministers to the Russian-speaking community. Their connection with Instep Ministries—and with the Hensons—spans more than twelve years, and their story is one of faith, resilience, and cross-cultural impact.

We’ll also hear reflections from the ministry team, who recently served at the International Leaders Conference in Zakopane, Poland. The stories are powerful and plentiful—so much so that it may be hard to share them all! But we promise: you’ll leave inspired.

Finally, Darryl and Joyce Henson will share updates from recent months and cast vision for what’s ahead in 2026.

You’ll enjoy inspiring stories, a delicious buffet meal, and the joy of gathering with others who share a heart for missions and a passion for empowering leaders internationally. You’ll also have an opportunity to support the ongoing work of Instep International.

We kindly ask that you register by November 20th to help us finalize arrangements with Shady Maple. Early registration also helps our team welcome you well and plan for a meaningful evening together.
