People in different ways come to God. Some believe in God from childhood, some gain confidence thanks to different events throughout their lives, sometimes tragic. Here it is a story that happened in Perm. On June 28, 2015 we baptized Alyona, the younger sister of our sister Anna. A little over a year ago Alyona arrived in Perm to be with her sister after a tragic situation of losing a loved one. She was left alone with two children, without shelter and work. Alyona was having a very challenging time, constantly crying and did not want to live.
Anna and the students in Perm prayed for her and tried to grow in their friendship with her. For this year, God worked on Alyona's heart and she is now looking at her situation differently. She understands that if this situation did not happen, she would not come to God. Now Alyona is full of faith and trust in God. She says that now she does not feel lonely and is happy to start life anew.
It was a dream come true for Anna to baptize her sister. Now Anna and Alyona pray and dream for the rest of their relatives to come to God.
