Tell about your childhood, school, family, etc.

I was born in a family of collective farmers – there were 4 kids, I was the youngest. After finishing school I went to Zhytomir where I graduated from the College of Trade. In 1969 I moved to Kyiv.

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

In Kyiv I worked at the bread-baking plant as a storage worker. Work conditions were different but because I was young I did not think much about it. I worked by shifts: 24 hours working and 72 hours resting. Then I married a driver. My husband died in 2000. In 2002 I retired.

Tell about your present life.

In 2016 I came to St. Paul’s Church. Now the terrible war is going – Russia attacked Ukraine. And Ukraine will win this war, because we are strong people and we pray for our Ukraine. Life is not fun now, but we will overcome the enemy. We are strong. The truth is on our side and the Lord is with us. Amen!

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

Yes, I accepted the Lord in 2016. I read my Bible, attend St. Paul’s Church and pray every morning. I believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. Faith is trusting in Christ alone, in what He did for me. For that He is take a place in my heart. “Believe in Jesus Christ and you and your household will be saved”. Faith in Christ is our salvation.

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

Heavenly Father, I come to you and ask you forgiveness for all my sins. Have mercy for me. Jesus Christ, I believe you died for me and rose from the dead for my salvation. Jesus Christ, come into my heart, and be my Lord and Savior, heal me and bless me. I trust in You and receive salvation, redemption and eternal life from You. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
