Our good Santa Claus An interesting tradition when children write letters with requests to Santa Claus before the New Year. Special mailboxes can be seen in large stores and even a beautiful box is in the office of our newspaper "R. Advertising". JCH of Bensonhurst has a free store in its employment department where employees and kind people donate items. During this pre-holiday time, the center's employees distributed things and toys to children, which was accompanied by unforgettable children's smiles and words of gratitude. Many people probably learned that before the New Year, more than a thousand children from various communities received gifts, which became possible thanks to the New American Civic League & Coney Island. It took place on 86th Street and 18th Avenue in Brooklyn and many witnessed a line that stretched for three blocks. The wonderful idea to give gifts to children, giving unforgettable moments of joy, belongs to district leader Dmitry Kugel, whose idea was supported by district leaders Lucretia Regina Poter, Yuri Dashevsky, the Sarantopolous family and volunteers, thanks to whom the children felt care and attention. Adults, especially from the countries of the former USSR, still remember with what trepidation they waited for New Year's gifts in childhood, but today many children are waiting for gifts in the same way during this difficult time for everyone. It's no secret that many people in New York live from paycheck to paycheck and, as they say, some have no time for gifts. And, of course, it is wonderful that 1000 gifts were received by children from families where parents did not have the opportunity to give their children a little joy, so it is not surprising that the line for gifts was so long. Still, it’s nice to see how the tradition of expecting New Year’s gifts is preserved and brings joy to new generations. No matter where we live, fortunately there are people who bring joy to children in families where financial resources are limited, highlighting how important kindness and solidarity is during the holiday season. Several children who received gifts said: “My sister and I were really looking forward to mom and dad returning from work and we would all go together to meet good Santa, who would fly to us on a rocket and hand out gifts. Santa Claus is already on his way back to Severny pole, and we are waiting for it again, next year!" Touching stories of children waiting for the arrival of the good Santa Claus show how important and necessary family traditions are for raising children on the eve of the holidays, and not only. I wish everyone a Happy New Year!

Rewarding the worthy It's always a pleasure to recognize deserving workers, and it was especially gratifying that, despite their busy schedules, Senator Steve Chen and his senior adviser, Ari Kagan, found time to come and congratulate the Georgian bakery on its 10th anniversary. Marina Lagunova

I turned to Lilya at a time when my husband and I no longer had conversations, hugs, or plans. We simply lived side by side, like strangers. There were betrayals, tears, despair. I didn't know why I woke up in the morning. Lilya became a light for me. She didn't force anything, didn't make false promises. She simply said, "You can still change everything." After a few sessions, the situation began to change. I changed. My husband began to look at me differently. We began to build a home again, not tear it down. Thank you, Lilya. You came at the right time. Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (regular call)
I thank Matrona for those who turned me into happiness, for her wisdom and light.
I haven’t had the courage to write this for a long time, because everything I’ve been through so far makes my heart hurt. Soon after I separated from my partner, I left my family, and a darker period of life began for me. Sleepless nights, tears, being empty at home, despair and hopelessness... I didn’t believe that I could turn him around and renew our family. When I returned to Matrona, this was my remaining peace, my remaining hope. She listened to me with such warmth and understanding, and she shared my love. From the first words, it became clear that I was not alone, that there was light at the end of this darkness. Matrona helped me walk this important path: she turned faith in myself, changed my soul and heart. I began to mark the signs that she indicated, and the man himself, having earned the first crumb before reconciliation. Those who seemed impossible, became - we turned home. Today we meet again. Our home is filled with joy, laughter and warmth. I thank Matrona for those who turned me into happiness, for her wisdom and light. Without her help, my family couldn’t get back together no. +380630228999 viber/whatsapp
We were divorced. He left. I was left with a child, a broken heart, and the feeling that it was all over. Lilia didn't promise he would come back. She said, "You must first get yourself back." And step by step, we began working. First, restoring my inner strength. Then, working with my energy. After two months, he started texting me himself. After three, we were back together. I didn't just get my family back. I got myself back. Endless gratitude to you, Lilia! Her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433
