Sasha Zhurin’s Family: Olesya, Sasha, Nadya, Nikita, and Julia.
About
Sasha and Nadya Zhurin and have felt called to plant a church in the Davydovsky district of Kostroma, which is one of the larger cities in Russia. Davydovsky is the largest district of the city and is a home to about 100,000 people, but there is only one Orthodox church in the area. Planting a church for the “unchurched” has been a mission for the Zhurins for years and is now coming to life. Sasha has formed a planting team that has been praying over Davydovsky and has started hosting events.
“We believe that through us and through all these plans God will touch the hearts of people and awaken those, whom He has chosen, so that they in turn can pass on the Gospel that saved them, to others.”
