Vasilisa's baptism
On the ninth Sunday after Trinity Vasilisa was baptized. She is fourth child to Alexey and Gloria. In Russia, where the average number of children per family is little bit more than 1, many people consider family with four kids as strange, even odd. But Alexey and Gloria never thought of their children as burden, they love them and take good care of them. And what is most important, they remember that their first duty is to raise kids in Lord's teaching. Their children are always at worship services, they go to Sunday school, they learn Catechism at home. We pray and hope that Vasilisa will start to attend Sunday school in couple years, and in due time will be confirmed and receive the Holy Sacrament.
