I personally was pleasantly surprised a few months back when our long time member Dmitri Vaganov announced his engagement to our community. His wife’s name is Irina Berzin and I’m sure she’s a great woman because it would take one to take the mighty Vaganov! Actually, she’s truly blessed to have Dmitri by her side. He has been a pillar in our community. He’s challenged us when he felt that we were cutting corners and inspired us to strive harder in our relationship with God. Often times, he reminds me of just how far I still have to go. In many ways, he’s the very definition of a man after God’s own heart.
