Steiger Ukraine is part of the international missionary organization Steiger International, founded by David and Jody Pierce in Amsterdam. They are people called to reach the global youth culture — those who would never come to church on their own.

Steiger's story begins in 1983 in Amsterdam, at the height of punk rock culture. On a floating barge near Central Station, David and Jodi began holding Bible meetings for punks and anarchists. At the same time, David founded the music group No Longer Music (NLM) as a tool to reach young people with the Gospel.

Steiger began in Ukraine in 2011, when Angelika Tkachenko invited David, Jodie, and the NLM band for their first tour. After that, the first group of Ukrainian students trained at the International Missionary Center in Germany — and that's where the Ukrainian ministry began.

Today, Steiger Ukraine is a missionary movement united by heart and passion: to raise missionaries with the DNA of the book of Acts who reach the youth culture for Christ — in Ukraine and “to the ends of the earth.” We have 7 active teams in 7 cities and about 150 participants and volunteers.

Since 2011, nearly 400,000 young people have heard the Gospel through street evangelism, tours, Bible Studies for the Non-Religious (BNS), youth spaces (Places), discipleship programs, and partnerships with churches.
