Oleksandra was born in 1994 in Kyiv, Ukraine. She became a believer at the age of 18 and was actively involved in the church she attended. She was never raised Jewish, even though part of her family from her father’s side is Jewish. Still, when she was a child, she used to read the stories from the Old Testament, watch biblical cartoons, and listen to lots of stories about Jewish life from her father and relatives. She had even visited synagogues several times in her life, but never really understood anything about Judaism until she became a believer. Then during the next few years, she dug deeper into the Old Testament. In 2019, she started working with Jews for Jesus because she wanted to share the gospel not just with her family, but with other Jewish people around the world.
