 Arlana keeps busy during the Christmas holidays painting chairs in our apartment patio in Chisinau.
 Ceremonies dedicating a new gymnasium of a highschool located in Cimislia, Moldova.  Even though we were invited guests, the Church was not apart of this renovation project.
 Another project that was completed during the Christmas holidays was this 4,000-piece puzzle.  We started it in October to keep us occupied during some slow times in our schedule.

 We visit with the Moldovan shoe maker and his wife in their shop.  They made Arlana's boots as well as 106 pairs of boots for some children located at a boarding school in Carpineni, Moldova.
 Elder  Kneib hands out shoes to a girl in her classroom at a boarding school located in Carpineni.
 A group picture of a class of students after they received their new boots as a gift from the Church.
 A picture of another class at the same school.  The little boy was especially grateful for his new boots.
 Excitement in the classroom as students get to see their new boots for the first time.
 Even the older students were happy to get some new foot ware.
All of the students were well behaved and each said thank you in their own way.
