Tell about your childhood, school, family, etc.

I was raised in  a family of clerks. My parents were believers. So since my childhood I have been surrounded by God’s blessings. I finished school and graduated from the university.

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

I worked at the science institute. Later I worked at the council of ministers. My work conditions were good. I always was going to work with joy. My colleagues respected me. We are still staying in touch.

Tell about your present life.

I used to study at the university for aging people. We had wonderful classes, took trips around Ukraine and went abroad. In one of such trips I met a wonderful person Raisa who invited me into St. Paul Church where I am now among my brothers and sisters. I wish our pastor and the whole leadership team to stay close to the Lord.

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

Jesus has been in my heart for many years. I thank Him for the gift of heaven. I trust in the Lord. I thank Him for every day I life, for having entered my life and becoming my teacher and friend. He is always with me, leads me, gives my joy and support, help when I am in trouble, strength. He heals my heart through prayer. He gives me confidence in the future. He forgives my sins due to the Cross and His Resurrection. My whole life is under His blessings.

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

As any older person I have various diseases. I find great comfort in fellowship with my brothers and sisters in church. God is love. And this love brings me through when I have no more strength left. My heart has found peace. For the Lord know my heart – it is to be cleansed before Christ. The Word of God helps for I believe in God. He is my light in the darkness. My greatest difficulties are connected to the war now. I pray daily, many times a day. My main prayer is for our soldiers, let enemy leave our blessed land quickly. The Lord is the main defender of Ukraine and He will see how our enemy will be destroyed.  I am very thankful for the help that I receive in St. Paul  Church. I am very thankful for the Word of God – it heals like medicines. I am especially thankful for the help from our sponsors who live in such blessed land. I wish us stay in touch for many years. Thank you for giving me confidence in tomorrow’s day. You make my life longer. I would like to have personal sponsors  which I do not have now. So my sponsors will pray for my kids and grandkids. I pray for you too. I wish you all blessings, peace, well-being and good health. Love and prayers, Melania.
