Tell about your childhood, school, family, etc.

My childhood was wonderful because any childhood is careless. Life after WW II was hard – there was famine. I was raised by a single mother who worked at the collective farm – she received no salary for her work. I remember picking frozen potatoes in the field – so we ate anything we could find then.

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

As a child I did all kind of work: in the garden, on the field, with cows, picking berries and mushrooms. I worked at the collective farm as a planner/manager first. Later I became a book-keeper.

Tell about your present life.

It is war now. Another thing is my age. All doctors advise me to be operated – but surgeries will take money and proper health condition to go through them. Fellowship with the Lord gives me patience – praise God.

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

Only faith can save you on this world – it helps you survive and not to lose your mind. Yes, I believe. I have been following the Lord since I was a child. My mother was a believer and she taught me everything about God. Now I am very thankful to God for being a part of St. Paul Church. Praise be to the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

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

My dear sister Julie and brother Norman, thank you for your greetings. I wish you good health and well-being. I am thankful to our MMK in the USA, St. Paul Church in Kyiv, our church ministers who share the Word of God with us. Thank you for material and medical help. I wish good health to Diane and Roger and to all our ministers. Praise be to Jesus Christ. Amen.
