Two years ago on this day my grandfather died. I miss him still. I am sure that Dmitry Shestakov's wife and three children miss him too. Pastor Dmitry has been imprisoned in Uzbekistan since early 2007 for “operating an illegal religious organization and distributing materials promoting religious extremism”. In other words, being a Biblical Christian! For more details on his case, click here.
It turns out that his birthday is the same day as my grandfathers: April 19th.
I can't send Grandpa a card, but I can (and will) send Dmitry one. You can too. You can even print out a pre-translated letter to include with it. Click here for details.
