Meet the Founders

5A7A6634-kopia.jpeg

We’re Ihor and Joy Tyrnovyi — a Ukrainian-American couple passionate about seeing lives transformed through the love of Jesus. We’ve been married for nearly four years and bring over 20 years of combined missions experience through Youth With A Mission (YWAM).

Ihor, originally from Ukraine, has served in missions for many years — leading teams, training young people, and helping plant ministries. He is also the founder of the charitable foundation Dental Hope in Ukraine, which has launched many impactful projects to expand God’s Kingdom in practical, creative, and strategic ways.

Joy, from the United States, recently completed her Bachelor’s degree in Biblical Studies with a focus on Pastoral Care. She has a deep heart for discipleship and walking with people toward healing and their calling.

God called us unexpectedly to the city of Poznań — a place we had never even heard of. Nestled in the heart of western Poland, Poznań is a beautiful city rich in history and culture.

Right now, there are no established ministries — because we are just getting started. But the vision is alive. We’re laying the foundations of a missions base that will disciple, equip, and send. And we believe God is calling pioneers like you to join us.

We are honored to serve as a Global Partner of YWAM Montana, walking together in a shared mission to know God and make Him known.

Whether you want to help plant a Discipleship Training School (DTS), start a ministry God has placed on your heart, or simply come and serve — we invite you to step into something new with us.

Come and be part of a beginning.

With love,
Ihor & Joy Tyrnovyi
