Teacher of Astronomy Impressed

Impressed by what? By the book Is There a Creator Who Cares About You? A teacher wrote from Novo-Sakmarsk, Russia, to the branch office in that country. Along with a request for more information, she explained:

“A few days ago, I happened to meet an old acquaintance of mine, and I went to her home. I saw a very interesting, attractive book on her bookshelf. The title interested me​—Is There a Creator Who Cares About You?​—but even more so did the picture on the cover. I am a teacher of physics and astronomy. When I looked at the book, I was impressed by the wealth of information it contains. Our family has not spoken about religion for three generations. My great-grandmother was religious, but my grandmother was a Communist, and they (Communists) did not believe in a Creator.

“As a teacher of astronomy, I am obliged to tell children about the different hypotheses on the beginning of the universe. I read your book straight through and then decided to write you a letter with my address. . . . I even asked to borrow a Bible so that I could read the scriptures right away.

“Thank you very much for this book! Perhaps I am late with this letter, for the book was released in 1998, but I hope that it is still possible to receive information from you.”
