Tell about your childhood, school, family, etc.

I was born in a family of a teacher. I had an older brother who is gone now. In 1946 our family moved to Kyiv.

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

In 1964 I graduated from the University of Economics and then worked at different organizations as an economist.

Tell about your present life.

In 1965 I got married and gave birth to my son. He works at the Academy of Science and now because of the war is not properly paid. My husband died in 2011. I have 4 grandkids, the youngest one is 10. Now I live like most pensioners in Ukraine. In winter time I have debts in payments of my utility bills, but I pay everything of during summer time. In Kyiv we have problems with central heating, power supply, but it is paradise compare to conditions people live in pre-front zones of Ukraine. Regarding my health, I have high blood pressure, heart issues and poor immune system.

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

My mother was a Tatar and my father was a member of Communist Party so in our family we never spoke on religious matters. When I grew up I bought the Bible and read it. When I came to St. Paul Church I heard our beautiful choir, started studying the Bible, met pastor Roger and his wife Diane, saw their sincerely love for people – all these things motivated me to get to know God.
