Hello dear Colin, Glen and everybody else!

Thank you for you letter and your help.

On the 3^rd of January we had a Christmas celebration for widows. There were 95 people. Everybody is very pleased and thank you for your help.

We have cooked: Liver with mayonnaise
(you probably do not like that J ), cabbage salad, potatoes with meat, smoked fish, kompot (home made juice), candies, cookies, bananas and oranges. Everything was great. Also there were 20 nonbeliever people, 10 of them came for the first time. Beside that we provided 55 gifts for those who were not able to come. There were chicken, sausage, butter, chocolate, banana, two oranges in the gifts.

Before the feast we had church service. John preached there and ladies shared their testimonies and sang. Also there competed in Bible knowledge. Those who came for the first time prayed the repentance prayer. We thank you very much for this ministry. It brought lots of blessings to our widows.

John and Vladimir say that they would be hungry for a year if they would not come to the feast. By the way, John says that everything was BOMBA-FANTASTIC J
