Exactly at midnight, with our eyes closed, suddenly – a voice behind us: “Jesus said, upon this rock I will build my church.” We all jump, shocked. I even took my camera with me at that time to record this on video – because no one believed me, and I always wanted to prove that these messengers came to me every day, but everyone thought I was some fool and it was just in my head.

This whole England and London.” I was absolutely in love with it. I was amazed by the people I saw, the atmosphere – everything was so beautiful. And then I returned to St. Petersburg with thoughts of wanting to live in London. And you know, for something to be more appealing to me than St. Petersburg – that’s almost impossible. But here I was, wanting to move to London. I went straight from the airport, I hadn’t even gone home yet, for some reason,
