Saint Nicholas Asks Us to Help 20 Children
Saint Nicholas today brought us to the big friendly the Kovalevs family, where there is one mother (her husband died several years ago) and twenty adopted children. This is a family-type orphanage in one of the districts of Donetsk. We have known this family for several years, and this year we came to visit them on St. Nicholas Day with many gifts, among which, first of all, such a necessary for all of them – VACUUM CLEANER! It is not easy to clean up a two-story house with a broom in hand. Following the example of St Nicholas, in addition to the basic need, we brought the children a lot of tasty and healthy food, and also pleased with the wigwams and swings so that children’s laughter will always sound in the house in cold weather and in the yard in warm weather, and there will be sparks of fun and joy in the eyes of all residents. And all this became possible thanks to those people who, like Saint Nicholas, love God and people! Thank you all! And in honor of the holiday, the children prepared their own small festive program for our arrival, in which they showed us with pleasure what they can do.
