Tell about your childhood, school, family, etc.

I finished 10 year local village school. I have an older brother who was born in 1947. Our parents have died.

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

In 1970 I came to Kyiv where I worked at the factory testing microchips. At the same time I was studying at the technical college in the evenings. After graduation I worked as a technical engineer at the factory – I enjoyed my job. I had worked at the factory for 23 years but because of my health condition I had to quit. Then I worked at grocery stores till I retired.

I have worked for 52 years. Now I am retired. I have the 2^nd degree of disability. I was operated with breast cancer. I also had a thyroid gland surgery. I have no kids. I have had 5 miscarriages. My husband also has the 2^nd degree of disability – he has had a hip replacement surgery. We live on small pension. We have to spend lots of money on medicines. It is hard now especially during the war.

Yes, I believe in Christ. I came to the church to study Bible in more details and to learn more about God. I enjoy being here. I believe in God and know that He will bring peace and victory into Ukraine.
