Elena Morozova (St. Helena)
"I went to college in Moscow. My grandmother was religious but my father was a party member, so there was no talk of religion in my house. But in college I got exposure to religion, and felt very much at peace in the Orthodox church. It's held me together all these years, as my life has unfolded here in the States."
-- Elena, mother, teacher
