Tell about your childhood, school, family, etc.

I had happy childhood – it was long ago. I remember my school well, my first teacher Faina Naumovna who encouraged us with small things for our achievements and good behavior.

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

I worked as a telephone operator. I loved my job but it took much emotional strength since I had to talk a lot. I worked at the Ministry of Defense, at the Ministry of Coal-mining Industry and at the big communication company.

Tell about your present life.

I have been retired for many years now. I used to visit my HB lady but she died and I have a break in my Stephen ministry. It is war in Ukraine now. My son is in territory defense group. I pray for him and for all our soldiers so they would come back home. Lord, help us to get rid of Russian soldiers.

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

My father was a bad alcoholic. So when my son was born I was afraid he could inherit this addiction so I kept praying to the Lord for my son. And He helped. I have been in St. Paul Church for 15 years. After the death of my husband my friend invited me to the church. I love to be in church – I enjoy sermons, Bible lessons and fellowship with people.
