We make Christmas holidays for orphans and during two last years we visited about 20 orphanages. More than 1000 children received Christmas presents and saw musical last year. This year children saw our Christmas play along with the presents we gave them. We pray that the real joy of Christmas could come to the orphanages of Russia each year.
