Michael Johnson is President SGA and building on the solid biblical and ministry foundation laid by Peter Deyneka and Bob Provost, who will continue to serve as an advisor to Michael as President Emeritus.According to Slavic Gospel Association, a staggering 87% of teenagers who “age out” of state-run orphanages at 18 will fall victim to these horrors or even suicide, disturbingly popularized through Groups of Death, unless someone intervenes.Across Russia, Ukraine and other ex-Soviet countries, an estimated700,000 orphaned or abandoned children languish in bleak institutions.In fact, according to a 2024 State Department report, “Even before Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, observers assessed protection of children in Ukraine’s government-run care system was inadequate. Human rights groups and media reported unsafe conditions in institutions, and there were allegations officials of several [Ukrainian] state-run institutions and orphanages had been complicit or willfully negligent in the sex and labor trafficking of girls and boys under their care.”
