Viktoria 1

     I have come from Ukraine in 2005.
     Beginning from 14 years old every year I spent my vocations in the village at my grandmother’s, and there my cousin was using opium made of poppy, growing there. I also started using opium, like almost all there... All that summer I was using opium. But when I returned home, I stopped, because I did not know that it was possible to get it here. I was waiting for the next summer! ...

     Another summer I also spent in the village, and ​​ was using opium, as well as during previous vacations. In such a way I spent three summers in a row. But after the third summer I did not stopped, I had become more experienced, and I got acquainted with drug addicts, and began to use drugs systematically ... Parents learned about it. I disgraced father, because he was the chief of Anti-Corruption Squad and the police often released me because of my father .. .

     Parents sent me to the hospital several times, to infectious diseases Department, made the cleaning of the body from intoxication, but it did not help. I was brought drugs straight to the hospital, because the huckster lived directly across the hospital... Parents gave up, and I was put into prison for three years. It was in Odessa, in the so called "mother's" zone with children. But it was convenient for me to be there. I was freed in a year and a half ...

     I got acquainted with the guy, we got married, gave birth to the child. Everything was fine, my husband was working, and my parents had already left for Israel by that time. Since the day of my release from prison eight years had passed and I thought I was free from drugs, I had a good job and everything seemed to be good. We also lived in Israel by that time. But one day I fell into the trap of drugs again. … I lost my family, and my mother took guardianship over my son, who was 6 years old then.

     During the following three years of using drugs I descended dramatically. I remained homeless in the street, all the relatives and friends turned away from me. I went for the drug to Tel Aviv and remained there. That time I thought, that everything was over. I couldn't walk. Dave, the Christian, who attended flophouses for drug addicts, called an ambulance for me.  I underwent 4 heavy operations and was considered already dead... my heart had stopped.  But  I survived!

     It was necessary to make the fifth operation, and doctors didn't guarantee me life... But I had to recover, then to return to hospital,.. But again I started being poisoned by drugs … for long 2 years. . I should die just in a little bit…. But one guy suggested me to go to rehabilitation. Periodically I went to the cleaning of the body from intoxication to survive, but completely I couldn't be released by own efforts.

At first I did not understand where I have got, and what they wanted from me. I needed to stay here for 26 days until the next operation. In 2 days I realized that this was my home and I'll be back here.

I discovered that there was a solution! It was God!

       When I was put in hospital for the fifth operation, I had a fear that my heart would not sustain again, but the pastor told me that God with me already, and I will be back to Katzrin. And when I was under anesthesia, I saw our Warm house, girls ... And the fear disappeared, and my past life has gone with this operation.

I passed rehabilitation, graduated from Bible school, served as a senior in the Warm House during the year. The Lord gave me back my feelings: I learned to love and forgive.

God returned everything, that satan had stolen.

He gave me the groom and my Dad communicates with me.

 My spiritual parents pastor Gennadiy Shaulov and his wife- leader Natalya.
I want to remain here, to live and to serve in Katsrin.

If  lose the hope of life, salvation exists, I am witness of it .
If God saved me, He would save you!
