Biography
Yuriy Loginskiy, who has been a construction worker all his life, was accused of extremism and placed under house arrest in March 2021 solely because of his belief in Jehovah God.
Yuriy was born in May 1966 in Sochi and has lived there all his life. His father was a builder and his mother was a teacher. Yuri and his older sister followed in the footsteps of their parents: he received the specialty of a tiler and mosaicist, and his sister became a teacher.
Yuriy met his future wife, Svetlana, when she was in Sochi on vacation. They got married in the summer of 1987. In 1988, their son Dmitriy was born. After school, he received a higher education in the field of construction and works in his specialty. The family loves to spend time with friends in nature, and Yuriy cooks for them with pleasure.
Yuriy and Svetlana became acquainted with Bible teachings a few years after their marriage and began to study the Holy Scriptures together. Having received convincing answers to vital questions and having examined strong evidence of the authenticity of the Bible, in 1996 the Loginskiys made the decision to embark on the Christian path one day. In raising their son, the couple adhered to biblical principles. The exact fulfillment of the prophecies and the wisdom of the advice in this book prompted Dmitriy to become a Christian too.
Unfair criminal prosecution and long months of house arrest affected Yuriy's health. In addition, the prohibition to leave the home deprived him of the opportunity to provide for his family. All this depresses the believer, so he is grateful to his relatives for their support.
