The Blessing of the Waters 

  

The meal afterwards included Theophany / Three Kings cake.

In some traditions, refreshment has to be left for the camels

- note the barley and carrots in the small dish! 

 

 


 

A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR!

 

 

Galina and Yuri send their very best wishes to all our community.

They are missing our milder weather and say that the temperature in Samara at present is -20C.  

 


 

Memory Eternal

 

Toni Nougher-Fuller

 

We were all much saddened to hear of the death from leukaemia of Toni on November 30th.

Toni was a most loyal and generous supporter of the Sheffield Community and she will be

 remembered for her many acts of kindness. Our heartfelt sympathies go to her husband Terry
