CIRCUS!!!
Sunday afternoon we (Lena, Maya, Deena & I) had the opportunity to visit the Grand St. Petersburg Circus for what may be our last time. The girls love going to the circus, though we rarely go more than once a year. (For pics from our visit check out Flickr.)
It's quite the privilege to be able to live in such a culturally-rich city. Permanent circuses, ballets, symphonies, museums and puppet theatres abound! There is almost no end to the list of cultural attractions in St. Petersburg.
We will be sorry to leave our beloved "Piter", but we are thankful for the opportunities we've had to enjoy some of the city's treasures over the years.

COMING TO CANADA
Patiently waiting... Still no word from the Canadian Embassy in Moscow. Hopefully news will come soon—please keep praying!
BLESSINGS
Praise God for the opportunity to serve in St. Petersburg. Despite the frustrations we've had living in the "Venice of the North" this city has been a source of endless wonder and adventure for our family.
We praise God for you, our friends and supporters! You continue to bless us in so many ways—thank you for continuing to stand by us as we wait and prepare for the changes to come.
PETITIONS
Visa news (of course! Please pray that some news will come soon!
Sonia is still looking for a new job. Please pray that she will be able to find a part-time job that will not interfere with her studies or require late-night travel.
Please continue to pray for our financial needs. More information about our support is at www.krhamm.com/support.
