O, Lord, Let Me Have A Russian Wife!

By Andrey Artyomkin "KP.Ru" Omsk City.

Jerry dreamed of a Russian wife, and his dreams have come true. Jerry Johnston the whole year went to church and then met a woman of his fancy.

For 58 years behind American Jerry Johnston there were two unsuccessful marriages. After the second one he told himself: "Never marry an American woman!"

- For these women to carve out a career is at the top. And only then a family - Jerry outraged.

Once a friend introduced Johnston to his Russian bride. Jerry was just fascinated: pleasant appearance, mild disposition, friendly, compliant nature.

- Here it is - ideal for the family! - American understood. - You do not have the same girlfriend, like you? - He immediately demanded from bride of the friend.

- We all in Russia are the same - she replied embarrassed.

That was when Jerry decided - his wife will only be a Russian woman. In search of a bride, American has posted his questionnaire in the Internet. Every day the letters came from all over Russia, but none was to catch on. Abandon the idea to find bride in Russia Johnston still did not intend to.

- O, Lord, let me have a Russian wife - Jerry prayed God every time coming to the Orthodox Church.

And once Jerry stumbled on a letter from Siberia. From the photo white-haired smiling woman looked at him, she was modestly siting on the couch. Not yet read the letter, Johnston realized:

- This is mine!

Proposed marriage... in church.

Svetlana was not in success with her husband. She alone had to raise a daughter. She would have to work a lot of, for rest and personal life little time left. Sveta began to think about herself after the daughter entered the university. Yielded to persuasions of girlfriend, left her form in the marriage agency.

Initially, she simply corresponded with Jerry by the Internet. Then American became to call every evening. When American realized that his Enchantress did not understand all he said he paid her English language courses. Then gifts by mail pour down - a gold bracelet, candy... One day a ring at the door, and messenger on the threshold stood with a huge bouquet of claret roses!

It turned out that Jerry himself was from Texas and as a real cowboy, skillfully copes with horses. He even promised also to teach Svetlana riding. Jerry has own company in Texas and large two-storied mansion where he feels alone.

Svetlana is under the age of sixteen years for Jerry. But she is not worried:

- He will leave any young in the dust! But most of all I was struck by his peerless sense of humor - Sveta said.

When Jerry's birthday was, Svetlana sent him a video - sang to the camera the song "Happy Birthday" in English. And in the end she asked Jerry:

- Maybe you are my destiny?

After that Jerry was hesitate no longer and went to Russia. One day Jerry took Svetlana to Nikolsky Cathedral, which is located in the city center. And, no embarrassed by parishioners, 58-years-old Johnston slipped to knees:

- Be my wife! On any given day, any hour you will be able to come to this church and recall how I made you a suggestion. I do this before God...

Svetlana replied with consent. Now she looks forward to when the visa will be ready to depart for the beloved to America.
