Valentin Solodyankin has been in a private Christian education since 2007. He attended a Christian school during his high school years and then studied at Whitworth University, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in communication and theology and, upon graduating, he taught Bible, history, and music at a local private school. Believing that God has called him to the children’s ministry, Valentin has traveled to Ukraine, Russia, and Mexico for summer mission trips.
Valentin is a family man who enjoys adventures. He has a lovely wife and three children, whom he adores dearly. He loves to learn, travel, and participate in outdoor activities and sports. "Enjoy life," is a motto he adopted from his father, and a motto he lives by. “We live in a beautiful world that God created and have so little time to see it all!”
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart…”
