Our new church

St. George Russian Orthodox Church is currently raising money to build a new church. The building is old, very small and on a small residental street, so we have bought a new plot of land that we are planning to build on VERY soon. Yesterday, we went sledding on that property and this is what we built there:
Minty spent the weekend inside. He is now outside in his hutch again, happy to be back in his house, I think!

Oh how beautiful! Did you name the church? :) I miss the snow so much! BTW, I've seen that desktop carousel too, I want one too! I'm going to get myself one when I'm done refinishing an old desk my dad made years ago for my grandfather, but he passed away before my dad could give it to him. So my brother used it for years and now when they moved back to Ohio, I claimed it. :)

May God bless your adventures in building a new church. How wonderful that you are growing in numbers to constitute a new building. Keep us in your prayers for a new church as well, we are in dire need and only God can help us.
Give Minty a pet and hug for us =)
