Katya was born and raised in Volgograd, Russia. Her mother’s parents were believers and weather the difficulties of the Revolution, Red and White conflict, the Stalingrad siege, Stalin’s purges and the persecution of the church.
Katya became a believer in 1992 and helped in the organization of several western mission organizations and churches in Volgograd. In 1995 she started her association with Frank and Lora and subsequently became the director of the Russian arm of Straight Ahead Ministries.
Katya is married and has two wonderful children. Her daughter has been bilingual since she started talking. Like Frank and Lora, Katya has a burning desire to see the church effectively impact individuals and the society at large to the glory of God. katya@straightaheadmin.com
