Tell about your childhood, school, family, etc.

I grew up in the village I was born in. My both parents were born in this village too.  I used to work from early childhood. I finished school. I graduated from the College of Trade in Kyiv and became an expert in goods.

Where did you work? Was your work good? Were you happy with your job?

I worked at a big grocery store next to National Opera building. From 1971 till 1989 I took different positions in the store: salesperson, administrator, HR manager, head manger of the grocery department, head of the department, second director of the store. From 1989 till 2000 I worked in “Works by Ukrainian craftsman” store in Khreschatik as an expert of trade goods. I was pleased with my jobs – it was hard but I worked with people whom I greatly respected.

Tell about your present life.

Now if I manage to live a day, I thank God. I have already told you that I have disability of the 2^nd degree: rheumatism of the 2^nd degree, heart deficiency, high blood pressure, fibromyoma of uterus that became cancerous so in 2013 I was operated. Joints in my spine and knees ache. With God’s help I manage to take care of myself.

Have you accepted Christ? How long have you been following the Lord?

I believe in Christ, yes. My mother was teaching me faith at home because then it was not allowed to go to church.

Tell about one thing your sponsor needs to know about you.

I love and follow the Lord, pray and thank Him.
