Rev. Pavel (Pasha) Lazovski is HopeRussia’s newest church planter. Former fireman of the year in St. Petersburg’s suburb of Kolpino, Pavel is a 2020 graduate of HopeRussia Seminary. He and Galina have a baby daughter, Eva. As soon as renovations are finished Pavel’s church plant will resume meeting in the 2,700 square-foot facility that you (HopeRussia partners) just helped to purchase in the center of St. Petersburg.

Pavel and Galina with baby daughter, Eva.  The pizza-like object in the middle of the table is khachapuri (Georgian cheese bread) which is one of the best-tasting foods in the whole world’s history of food.  Eating Georgian cheese bread will change your life.
