Matushka Olga served her community not only as a priest’s wife, but also as a midwife. She herself bore thirteen children, although only eight survived to childhood.

On 3 of February 1916, a girl Arrsamquq was born into an indigenous Alaskan family of Yupik origin. The presence of the Russian mission in her community helped spread the faith among the locals, and she was among the first to be baptised as an infant. She accepted the name Olga.
