The
Master's Foundation
federally incorporated in 1983, is a Canadian based, non-profit inter-denominational organization with charitable
status number -11924-446 5RR 001.
Although incorporated only in 1983, it's ministry
began with the incorporation of Harmony Printing
Ltd. in 1965. Stan and Henry Watrich,
third generation Ukrainians, born and raised in
Western Canada established Harmony Printing in
Toronto, which they operated for 25 years.
Harmony Printing served the Ukrainian community
in Toronto and abroad. The Watrich's were
missionaries at heart and God placed within them
a love and compassion for Eastern Europe.
During the time of their ownership many
Christian publications in Ukrainian and English
were published for Ukraine and Canada.
Serving on the Board of Directors of World
Christian Ministries with the late Rev. George Derkatch, they assisted in the publication of "Nuestrems
Bible Encyclopedic Dictionary" and "Halleys
Bible Handbook". These publications were a first
for Ukraine and even today, are still in great
demand in Russia and Ukraine. One of their major
personal projects was the translation, printing
and distribution of over one million, 48 page
gospel booklets into Poland. Many other
publications in Eastern Europe stand as
testimony of their labours.
As
the demand for literature in Eastern Europe
increased and additional funding required,
The Master’s Foundation was incorporated.
From its inception the primary purpose of The
Master’s Foundation was to be a channel of
production of Scripture in various forms,
including Bibles, Children’s Bibles, Christian
literature, books, educational aids, study
guides; instructional health manuals and provide
Theological Education-Teaching.
The Masters Foundation is also extensively
involved in the procurement and distribution of
humanitarian aid, shipping to date over 40,000
cartons (2.4 million pounds) in the form of
medicine, vitamins, medical supplies, food
products and clothing to Ukraine. These services
are supplied in Ukraine to Churches, Seminaries,
Hospitals, Hospice Centers, Orphanages, Prisons,
humanitarian institutions and educational
systems. From this perspective the following has
been accomplished.
