Russians have a long and beautiful relationship with music, one that has made lasting impacts on the world through her classical masters. Who hasn't been moved by the genius of Rachmaninoff, Prokofiev, and Tchaikovsky, to name a few?
This love of music is made all the more glorious in the church. Any evangelical Russian church service will always include emphatic, heartfelt singing of praises to the Lord. Accordingly, Moscow Theological Seminary and its satellite institutes take great pride in offering special Music Ministry certification programs for their students, like Oksana.
Oksana recently received this special certification through the North Caucasus Bible Institute's music program. Part of the program requires students to undertake apprentice-like training with area church music directors and their programs.
Oksana plans to use her training to impact the next generation in her home church by engaging the children and creating its first-ever youth choir.
To God be the Glory!
