DENNIS & ANYA MELNICHUK
AWAKENED GENERATION
UKRAINE
Dennis and Anya Melnichuk lead Awakened Generation, a Spirit-filled ministry based in Eastern Europe with a global reach. Their mission is to raise up a generation of wholehearted disciples—sons and daughters who walk in deep intimacy with Jesus, carry His presence with boldness, and bring transformation to communities, cultures, and unreached peoples around the world.
Awakened Generation was founded in 2016 with a passion to mobilize young people into missions, worship, and justice. Today, the ministry operates across multiple fronts, including:
Discipleship schools like the School of Sons & Daughters and the Heart of Worship School, where students are trained in the Word, spiritual formation, and practical ministry.
Short and long-term missions trips that take the gospel into cities, villages, and conflict zones.
Orphan care and mentorship programs that serve vulnerable children with love, dignity, and long-term support.
KULTURA Coffee House, a creative, community-based outreach that creates a safe space for conversations, worship, and connection.
Humanitarian relief projects—including micro-home construction, refugee support, and food distribution—especially in response to the war in Ukraine.
Dennis and Anya are currently focused on Ukraine, where the hunger among Gen Z and war-impacted communities is growing. Awakened Generation is helping plant communities of faith, establish worship and prayer spaces, and disciple new believers in cities like Ternopil and Chernivtsi.
Through teaching, worship, creative outreach, and Spirit-led ministry, the Melnichuks are helping to activate a movement of young people who live missionally—whether at home, in the Church, or among the unreached.
Life Center is honored to partner with Dennis, Anya, and the Awakened Generation team as they carry the fire of revival, healing, and hope across Eastern Europe and beyond.
