Anja

At the age of 14 I started taking hard drugs...

My name is Eugene Rabin. I am 33 years old. I live in Haifa in the monastery. I met God on October 3rd.2008. Immediately I felt His mercy, love and grace. Since the age of 15 I was a person who operated outside the law and was a drug addict. I’ve been incarcerated in jails in both Kazakhstan and Israel. I tried several times to put an end to that sort of lifestyle, but now I understand why all of these attempts were in vain! This was because my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was not .directly involved. I tried to do these things by my own strength and failed every time. After so many years of living in darkness, personal suffering, and time spent in prisons, I came to the rehab center of «Living Israel» congregation.
I completed the required course of rehabilitation, in Katzrin. By the grace of God I was able to attend the school for disciples in Haifa, and completed it. My studies practice took place at one of the rehab houses. Now via the great mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ I serve as the Deputy Director of the School for Disciples at our Monastery (Haifa). My God is alive. I feel on myself His love and mercy at every moment. I love Jesus Christ. Be blessed.
