Our Bulgarian sister in the Faith of Jesus, sister Vasilka Yakimova who lives in a suburb of the city of Kyustendil, Bulgaria, will start her 99 th year of life in September 2024, well informed sources confirmed. At the age of almost 98 years, sister Vasilka Yakimova visits the Christian worship in the church every Sabbath and takes part in the Christian praising God via declaiming Christian poems by heart. A brother in the faith of Jesus recorded even a video on which sister Vasilka Yakimova declaimed by heart a Christian poem under the title “The Heart”: https://www.facebook.com/margarit.zhekov/videos/426106553578683/
Sister Vasilka Yakimova is a person who has many talents given by God – she writes Christian poems, she has received literary awards from Bulgarian national literary competitions, and she has also ‘gifts of helps’ (1 Corinthians 12:28) like the patriarch Job (Job 29:15) and our merciful Lord Jesus Christ has granted her an age similar to that of Job as well.
