Russian Festival Preparation

The first outside task was to put up the booths. This is done by the City of Baltimore on Tuesday 14 October 2008. Meanwhile Ron delivers the beer and wine for the Festival.

The neighborhood also supported our Festival. One of the employees of Washington Hills Mutual Homes, Inc. fixes a tree well. Staff members talk with some of our people and offer us support and encouragement.

A wallet was lost on the street and the woman who found it called the church and returned with the wallet the next day to give it to the owner. In our society we call this honesty. According to Dr. Samuel A. Kramer, professor of criminology at the US Department of Agriculture Graduate School back in the 1960s and 1970s, some societies in America would say that it would be honesty for her to keep the wallet. I am so happy that her definition of honesty is the same as ours.
