Yana Allen remembers her childhood in Odessa, Ukraine, right after the fall of Communism. There Yana saw CBN’s Superbook program for the first time.
”This cartoon started coming on and it was so bright and colorful – we kind of were glued to the TV,” she says.
Yana was eager to learn more about Jesus. So she wrote a letter to CBN WorldReach in Kiev, Ukraine, and received a Bible in the mail.
“I really didn’t know what to do with it. I knew it was really precious, really powerful, really important, so I kept it under my pillow. Sometimes I would pull it out and sometimes I would pet it and look at it and even kiss it and put it back. I was so excited to get it because I never held a Bible before in my hands. I don’t think I’d ever seen Bible,” Yana laughs.
Yana began attending church despite her family’s objections.
“I had a really good friend in this church,” says Yana. “I was sharing with her I really didn’t know what to do next and she said open the Bible, put your finger on the verse, any verse, and this is what God wants you to hear. … He will take care of it.”
Yana tried it, and found Isaiah 55.
“Seek the Lord while He may be found; call on Him while He is near,” Yana recites. “I just fell on my face, but I asked Jesus to come into my life. I didn’t know you had to pray some special prayer, but the Holy Spirit led me to Him. I knew for sure that God is in me now and I’m saved and I’m forgiven and I’m redeemed and I was excited! He was that Jesus that I knew from the Superbook cartoons.”
In 2002, she met Michael Allen, who was visiting Ukraine on a mission trip. The two married and began their new life together in America. Michael and Yana are CBN partners and they’re excited about CBN’s new Superbook animated series. It’s a gift they now share with their own children.
“One of the things about CBN that makes me want to support them over and above our tithe, is the ministry they do around the world,” says Michael. “You know, what better way to reach children than a cartoon!”
“Just think about it,” adds Yana, “16 years ago – 20 years ago – that little girl who’d been watching the cartoon now is able to support it!”
