Koble in Russia
Koble in Russia
ДОМОЙ
Many of my friends and family know that I have been called by God to serve in Russia as a long-term missionary. This is an assignment that God has been preparing me for since I first set foot on Russian soil in 2005. I will be working primarily in the town of Arkhangelsk which is in the northwest region of Russia. It lies on the Northern Dvina River near its exit into the White Sea. Arkhangelsk is home to approximately 350,000 people.
This site represents the knowledge gained and my learnings from my Russian experience. Please feel free to explore and comment as you see fit.
Russia Awaits
“There have been brotherhoods in other lands, but never any such brotherhoods as on our Russian soil. It has happened to many of you to be in foreign lands. You look: there are people there also, God's creatures, too; and you talk with them as with the men of your own country. But when it comes to saying a hearty word--you will see. No! They are sensible people, but not the same; the same kind of people, and yet not the same! No, brothers, to love as the Russian soul loves, is to love not with the mind or anything else, but with all that God has given, all that is within you.”
-Nikolai Gogol
