Russia: House of Grace and Hope

Lina, who used to attend Tracy's church but now attends Pentecostal services with an African pastor, prays with Tracy while waiting for dinner to cook at the House of Grace and Hope. Lina often speaks in tongues and Tracy says of her that "sometimes the Holy Spirit just takes over.” Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, 2009.
