On Saturday 5 December the parish rector baptised Ariana Sakhnova, the daughter of Grigory Sakhnov and Lyubov (Liya) Khmeleva.  Ariana, who was given the name Ariadna in baptism, had as her sponsors Maria Kiseleva and Maxim Khmelev.  We warmly congratulate Grigory, Liya, Maria and Maxim, and wish the newly-baptised handmaiden of God Ariadna many years!
