Former missionaries to Russia, Jared and Suzanne Lee, will share their experiences among the Russian people in a meeting open to the public at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 1017 First Street, Fillmore, on Sunday, April 30, 2023, at 4:00 p.m.
The Lees were called by their church to leave their home in Orange County and serve full-time missions in the Russia Moscow Mission. They trained local church leaders and supported Latter-day Saint congregations in Voronezh, Russia (about 325 miles south of Moscow), as well as Lipetsk, Russia (another 100 miles northeast).

Their son Jared was the Bishop of the Santa Paula ward (congregation) and is now 2nd Councilor in the Ventura California Stake Presidency.

Their presentation includes a slideshow, descriptions of Russian perspectives of religion, and the Russian government’s restrictions on their efforts to share the message of Jesus Christ in that controlled society. At the end of their presentation the Lees will open the meeting for questions and answers. The presentation is free to the general public.
