Meet Vasily Lopatin

My name is Vasily Lopatin. My family and I moved to Rochester, NY from Virginia to start a church for Ukrainian, Russian, and Belorussian people. We have three kids in our family: Yelyzaveta (born in 2000), Denis (born in 2005), and Anton (born in 2011). I am a graduate of Odessa Theological Seminary (B.Th., 1999, Ukraine) and Evangelical Theological Faculty (M.Th., 2001, Belgium). God blessed us with a wide experience of teaching at churches and in Odessa Theological Seminary for a number of years (2001-2014) as well as practical church ministry as missionary and pastor in Russia and Ukraine (1991-2014). We are here in upstate New York to share with people that Jesus loves them and want them the best in their lives.

Repentance in sins, sincere faith and obedience to the Bible in daily life makes a new person out of a fallen sinner. We experienced this in our lives and would like to tell people this will work in their lives as well. We plan to start Bible study groups in different locations of the Rochester area. Three years ago, we have started our worship services at a place we rent from True North Church at 420 North Winton Road, Rochester NY 14610. We meet at 5:30 PM each Sunday evening for worship/Bible study in groups/fellowship time. Come to join us!!!
