On behalf of Andriej, Nastia and their children I would like to thank all of you for your prayer, support, and donations. They are grateful that they have each other and people around them who express the goodness of their hearts by helping them in different ways. There is a chance that they will soon have their own place to live. The governor has promised to help in this matter. For now, we are sure of one thing; we will start to build a new house for them during the summer months. Why in the summer? Because here, in Kamchatka, spring is like winter. J There is one more reason for joy, namely, Andriej won in Берингии which is Beringia. It is worth looking at the website БЕРИНГИЯ - традиционная камчатская гонка на собачьих упряжках. Берингия (Beringia) is dog sled racing through the northern parts of the Tayga and Tundra of the Kamchatsky region. There are no roads. The first “Beringia” race was held in January 1991and since then it has become an annual tradition. Each year the distance differs between 590 - 1149 miles. This year’s distance was 683 miles. The race begins in the village Esso and finishes in Ossora. Today, in the southern part of Kamchatka, dog sled racing is a sport. However, in the regions of northern Kamchatka and the Chukchi Peninsula dog sledding is just a means of transportation. Andriej set a new record in a field of time ridding the dogs. He received a monetary prize of $10232.00. This will at least help them to build the new house. God is taking care of us all the time.
