How I came to believe in God

I was born in a small military-base town, in a typical family engaged in military service. In my family nobody ever spoke about God being a real being and personality and even less about the fact that He died for me. All I had was a children’s illustrated Bible, the story of Noah’s Ark told by my father, and the Lord’s prayer that I had to learn by heart - simply because everyone had to know it – so that we could speak it out if something bad happened. We didn’t pray this prayer often.

In 1999, when I was almost nine years old, there came an opportunity at my school to go to a health retreat place in the republic of Moldova. No one could imagine at that point that the place wasn’t a pioneer camp but a Christian camp. For several years I went there for vacation; the Bible lessons were for me a waste of time and the most unbearable activity in the otherwise fun camp.

The Club is the place where guys and girls ages 12 to 16 can have fellowship with each other and with the church youth group, and hear the Living Word that is vital to our life. We invite everyone within the age range of 12 to 16 years old. The date and time information can be found under the tab "Calendar ".
