During its annual Spring Meeting, the Executive Committee of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists voted to attach the Ukrainian Union Conference, the Church’s administrative region covering the country of Ukraine, directly to the GC, until other comprehensive arrangements can be made.
The Ukrainian Union Conference includes the Ukrainian Adventist Center of Higher Learning and the Source of Life Publishing House. In March of 2013 Hope Channel Ukraine was launched, giving the Seventh-day Adventist Church its fourth full-time satellite channel in Europe.
