Percentages that are daunting

Tyumen is a city of about 800,000 people, so nearly a million. That's easier to say and to type. So, I was having a conversation with a fellow worker here in Tyumen who's been here for almost 4 years. There is an estimated 1000-1500 Chr!stians here, who have more than just a cultural connection to the faith! I don't like typing out statistics, because there's been no official survey or statistical analysis that I know of (she Katrina, I learned while you were getting your PhD too), but the rough numbers really were surprising.

I really need to think about this some more and what the implications are for continued work here.
