Biography
Spouses Kirill and Anastasiya faced criminal prosecution for their faith. In the summer of 2019, their home was searched, and a year later a criminal case was opened against the head of the family.
Kirill Yevstigneev was born in December 1979 in Nizhny Novgorod. He has a younger brother, Oleg. Kirill grew up as a sports child, he loved to play football.
After graduating from school, Kirill worked for 6 years as a grocery procurement manager, then for 2 years as a janitor, and recently he was a compressor operator.
In 2002, Kirill married Anastasiya, who shares his life values. The couple love to spend time with friends and organize theatrical and musical parties. Kirill also enjoys volleyball, football and table tennis.
As a teenager, Kirill became acquainted with Bible teachings through his mother. This knowledge, as well as the good qualities that those who live by the biblical laws learn to display, prompted him to consciously embark on the Christian path at the age of 19. Kirill’s brother also became a Christian.
The search and subsequent criminal prosecution did not pass without a trace for the couple. Kirill and Anastasiya say: “After the search, we feel tension when someone rings the doorbell. But we try to remain calm, joyful and positive. "
Kirill's mother and brother consider the criminal prosecution to be unfair. According to them, they could not even imagine that their loved one could be prosecuted as a criminal accused only because of their belief in God.
