40 Years of Grace
My Birthday Personal Message to You!
Sowing Into the Next Season

Today I celebrate 40 years of my life, 25 years of serving God and 14 years in full-time ministry. Glory to Jesus for His faithfulness through it all!

🎉 When I was just 15 years old, I began serving in a local church in Washington State. Little did I know that those early steps of faith and a simple YES to God would shape the next 25 years of my life!
Looking back today, my heart is overflowing with gratitude to my parents, pastors and everyone who was part of my life.

For the past 14 years, I've had the incredible privilege of serving the Lord in full-time ministry through Solid Rock Mission. It started with SMBS and continued with GoToNations. It's truly been an amazing journey!

We've witnessed over 20,000+ thousands of children encounter God's love, over 250,000 of families receive hope in their darkest moments, young people become disciples of Jesus, and leaders been raised up to carry the Gospel to their generation. We have seen many incredible miracles and breakthroughs, but also had seasons of sacrifice, challenges, and learning to trust God more deeply.

Through it all, one thing has remained constant: God's faithfulness!

Along this journey, God has blessed me with my beautiful wife, Julia, and our three precious children. It began with me as one young man's with the desire to serve God and now become a calling we embrace together as a family.

As I enter this new chapter of life, I believe with all my heart that the greatest days of ministry are still ahead!

God has given me the opportunity to travel and minister in more than 30 countries. Here are just a few pictures from those journeys.

🎁 My Birthday Invitation

As I celebrate my 40th birthday, I want to invite those who believe in what God has been doing through our lives to be part of the next chapter.
Rather than asking for birthday gifts, I'm opening an opportunity for friends, family, and ministry partners to sow into the next season of our life and calling through Solid Rock Mission.

Your generosity helps sustain our ongoing missionary service, including the practical living and housing support our family needs as we continue dedicating our lives to reaching people, making disciples, and raising up the next generation of Kingdom leaders.

If the Lord places it on your heart, I simply invite you to prayerfully sow whatever He leads you to give.
Whether you have been walking alongside us for many years or have only recently become part of our journey, please know how deeply grateful we are for you.

Your prayers, encouragement, friendship, and generosity have meant more to us than words can express.


Twenty-five years ago, I said YES to God. Today, at 40, my answer is still YES!

Thank you for being part of the story God is writing.
The best is yet to come! ❤️
With love and gratitude,

Slavik Golovatyuk
Full-Time Missionary Founder & Pastor - Solid Rock Mission

My Birdday wish & goal:

1) Increase Monthy Support to Solid Rock Mission by $1,500 
- 12 partners giving $39/month
- 10 partners giving $70/month
- 1 partner giving $390/month 

2) Anyone who feels led — a one-time seed of $39, $70, $390, $700 or any amount.

Your support helps us continue camps for kids, discipleship programs, Bible training, evangelism, and practical care for families affected by the war. We are seeing God move every single week — and your generosity is literally fueling the mission.

Thank you for celebrating my birthday by investing into God’s Kingdom with us.
We love you all.
