Tell about your childhood, school, family, etc.

I lived with my mother in Ivano-Frankivsk until in 1953 we were forced to move to a village in Lugansk region. My mother milk cows at a collective farm. When I finished school I worked in sales.

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

I was working in sales and I loved it because I was working with people though it was difficult because during the work day I could not sit down. I worked in cafeteria place in a coal-mine.

Tell about your present life.

I had to come to Kyiv because my town is occupied now. I live with my daughter-in-law, grandson and son.

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

I believe in Christ. When I lived in my native town I used to go to church there. Now I attend St. Paul’s Church where I listen to our pastor’s sermons.

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

During my lifetime I have had both happy and sad experience. I had been married for 30 years. My husband died of a disease. We gave birth to a son and a daughter. When my daughter was 39 she died of a disease. The war has ruined our happy life. We believe in victory, it will be ours.
