Peter N. Deyneka, Sr. (July 12, 1897 – July 29, 1987) was a Russian-American evangelist and a missionary to the Russian diaspora. Born in what is present-day Belarus, Deyneka immigrated to Chicago in 1914, where he worked in a machine shop. Reared in the Russian Orthodox Church and briefly claiming to be an atheist, Deyneka was converted to evangelical Christianity in 1920 under the ministry of Paul Rader at Moody Memorial Church.
