Description

Tell about your childhood, school, family, etc.

I finished school in village. Then I studied in technical college for 2 years.

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

I worked as a secretary director and a head of HR department in the organization responsible for conducting concerts. I worked with different Ukrainian and foreign artists – it was very interesting. I was very pleased with my job.

Tell about your present life.

My life has been good. In 1977 I gave birth to my daughter. I had been married for 30 years until my husband died at the age of 55. My granddaughter is 20 now. The state organization I had worked for presented me an apartment. I was also a secretary of the labor union. I had no time to be bored. I was at all possible concerts and performances in different theaters.

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

I believe in Christ since my childhood. My mother used to sing in church choir and took me to church on all religious holidays. I am a Christian – I pray for my kids, grandkids, older people, for the victory of Ukraine. I pray for our soldiers to get back alive. I believe God will give Ukraine peace and victory.
