Winter Photos



We are standing at a trolley-bus stop. This was taken behind our apartments (you can see the top of the blue building in the background is where we live).


This is the pile of snow you see around most of the city and the iced walkways we navigate on most of the areas we go to.



This picture of an Orthodox Church in a small town called Sestoretsk. There is a wall just to the right that has names of many people died throughout the invasion of Germany
When we were walking from the Church building to Elder Haggard and Elder Shrader's apartment we walked over this bridge. It was really neat seeing the evaporation of the water into the cold air

Elders that go with us on our visa trips.
Me and Joe, Elder Haggard, Elder Poulson, Elder Nielsen. (Elder Punderson is taking the picture)
Shopping day below. This new mall opened last November called the Galleria (Галлеря)
Sister Hazlewood and Sister McArthur and I really enjoy this mall that reminds us of one in America



































































Here are photos of a spectacular outdoor lightshow we watched in January in the open square at the Hermitage.
