This week on The Freedom Records, hear from Olga Voloshina who is from the Baltic country Estonia. Her family lived under Soviet rule during World War II until the 1990’s, when they claimed their country’s independence peacefully. Her story is one of faith, family, entrepreneurship and the American dream.
Estonia has an unique history, as it was under Nazi rule and then ultimately, Soviet rule beginning in the 1940’s. Olga was born into communism in the USSR and learned quickly that she had to censor her family’s belief in God. She saw the failed promises of communism first hand and what communism really was: complete control over the people. Olga shares stories her grandmother told her about their family history, including her grandfather sent off to prison by the early stages of the KGB, the secret police of the USSR.
Olga eventually moved to the United States to seek ultimate freedom where she relishes her life with her husband and family in Texas. We love Olga’s story – it’s full of resilience and faith – and speaks truth to precisely how the communists operate.
