When 24-year-old Dasha ( second from right ) interviewed to attend the OMS Ukraine Summer English Camp in May 2018 , she wanted to improve her English . She also had spiritual interest , but it was mainly focused on Eastern religions and secular psychology .
At the camp , God opened Dasha ’ s eyes and heart to the person and teaching of Jesus , and she decided to follow him .
She didn ’ t immediately connect with a life group or a follow-up discipleship meeting , partly because she was getting married a month after camp . But she stayed in touch with her cousin Mary ( far left ), who was a life group member . She also met with OMS missionaries Randy and Shelley Marshall for marriage counseling with her new husband Anton ( far right ).
The OMS Ukraine team was encouraged to see Dasha grappling with the biblical ideas of marriage and relationships and to see her pre-Christian husband open to considering biblical truths .
Today , Dasha attends a weekly Discovery Bible Study , as well as a weekly life group . Her heart has become so full of God that she must share with friends and family . Anton , although not yet a believer , now expresses significant interest in the Bible and the person of Jesus and occasionally attends a life group .
OMS Hungary missionary Will Dickerson taught a student , Eszti ( inset , left ), about having faith like a mustard seed . She had many questions . After attending OMS ’ English Camp and being discipled afterwards , Eszti gave her life to Christ and was baptized . Today , Eszti and her husband Peti Gáldi ( right ) are thriving in their faith and helping lead others to Christ .
