the credit and concept sense of the, you know, it was a finance that arises serious all positions on the, on the west side and ukrainian side issues about their own strength illusions about strength of the russian opponents. basically the, you know, the take their to rush or, and your crime was a door that just had to be checked in and the whole structure would come, come sometime in the looseness. i've been shocked with the i'm learning layman or sometimes i'll say, learning nickel language lehman. i am right now in anchorage where i live anchorage, alaska. i'm just happy to share a little bit of about my here. in 1798. you've seen rush through gloria who is a russian ship builder, married a and a looted woman, alaska native woman from a fog,

which is near kodiak. and they had 4 children. one of the daughters stayed in alaska and married to dougherty, boston cuff. they moved from kodiak and $1847.00 to be part of the establishment family for the village of nell check a small community in alaska that still exist. and that it was set up initially as a retirement community for those who had served in the russian american colony and served their time probably about 20 years. and they were looking for a place where they can raise their families and have cattle in the catch fish. and if what is interesting, my father is born in 1917. his 1st language is dominant language. and the language that still you could tell was language even late in life at studious

spoken english for all those years. his 1st language and government language was rushing the . do you remember any major little points which your mom told during the russians could go to bed? so it just says no effect when you are 60. yeah, yeah, of boyfriends, went to the boy in his front doorstep. you're going to have some. so it has been done by the 20th. i forgot the rest of it. the only email sophia, about a 100 years old. i don't know how i got there, but i do see those born now little nail is they do now, is it something that can i put in?

so i like everybody knew each other in the building. everybody's full price and i learned russian language way before i. i didn't speak english until i went to the 1st grade and when we spoke russian on the church, crowns, we used to have as a uh, we tell them each other. and when the teachers heard that we were speaking english and they would wash a mile from it. so it's a desktop tool and i thought i had never having my website builder for that's and that's what they do. so i always have a change. does this full question? i would never as mentioned anyone at that time. and it wasn't until years later

that i became proud that i would speak of the russian language. my name is uh greg. uh, greg. i got a gaudy my origin doctors name. i'm a born and raised here and you know, check this graveyard has many and many of them, you know, some people from way back when a lot of our families, lot of even to the russian area and they enter marriages. so we just want to mention some of my family is very unfortunate is family comes and goes. but uh yeah, i had crossed his belt the older style, orthodox cross. my brother eric there is larry a scroll cause is actually a brother of mine to skulk of. that's a name from the original russian men that settled here. that was my original family . i meant to ask you, but i, my real name is the scope of, we're very proud of our as just re read on the read or deny or is history. we don't and i are russian blood. i'm

a leader of native corporation and the tribe. and so i have indeed blood in me, i know that i got from both sides and for very proud of our car, larry edge in our history, very rich history grew up knowing river russian, we have russian in our blood. well, there are some typical things because when we joe, we laugh to stories one device, we laugh and we like to tell the stories and trips and tricksters. and so we do have some of that and i'm sure that's pressed down from, from the russian age on down to today. first order as a, you're the most. i'm so much of horsed, a good deal to explain it to those who didn't understand both languages. the boss and the dogs that i want the others, you know, there's a, a door to door salesman who is going around the village and you're in the notes deck and he goes up to one of the houses and knock some of the door and the

housewife comes out with a broom it says step was to buy and he says, oh stool pi apple pie, any kind of fire? she goes to super. and my father told me when you leave him is here to see was almost 93 when he died, but probably is high eighties. he was talking about one of his cousins from then it'll take one of his best friends when he was growing up and is a young man who went on to become very successful in business and sold his business later in life and, and was obviously what we call him a multi 1000000 and it was, it was well and my father was a hard working fisherman of his life and as well, you know, he, he was able to support his family do well. if he didn't have the same type of

financial wealth to him, but he told me this. he said maybe rich. but he says i'm rich to i'm richard, family. and. and that really had an impact on me and. and so, you know, he left his life for some left behind some resources, but the reality was what he left behind is this what you saw today. we see generationally young children that are making a difference in our world. and the, and my father and mother really were rich, like richard found the jesus, my grand kids garden, their grandchildren garden. he was my rock and my brother isaac's wreck, and my cousin, naomi's rock, a brother ju,

those rocks, grandma and grandpa ro, our names on these rocks the so as far as they know, my grandpa and lauren built this cabin red one. and then my grandpa and grandma, this was their cabin, is the cabin knock, not anybody home this the vanya gotcha, that's my bubble sca and the address there. the address goes. gotcha. so, uh, is this mr. kevin is kind of like our doctor. we are we, it's our summer getaways to get out of the city. so we normally now live in

anchorage and, you know, living here is it, it's rather exhilarating. and it's, it's fun. we spend more time together as family here and we have 5 grandchildren staying with us for several weeks. then we have 3 more coming in tomorrow. is there actually coughing there? good. shrink sometime. so that's can i just a so bon yeah. here is, you know, i had one before with an old barrel stove, little old one. and then i built this big fancy new one, but we love binders. monitors are distribution for russia. they come over for rush over there. there was a tradition, everyone in the village, they had no running water, they had nothing every day. every week they took vanya and once or twice a week,

certain days. and so they looked binders, and my mom and my uncle met mike in the village. they always had vanya things, here in here, i insulated, ultimate, old fashioned way. i should wait, you see how it cuts this corner. kind of a rush of design and there. but inside here in the hospital where you're coming off here only for high, so to speak, to cancer lashawn to disease, which flash on these rocks, this little stove. you stuck it up or birds like mad it says good bunch is good for the bones and it keeps me young as the most expensive bunch of new nozik is the best that was there was no one got by and you're like me the

church? yes, it is an active choice individual, very up to the new brothers leave it. oh yeah. i'm a father, arch priest, thomas, teaching of andrew. and this is the transfiguration of our lord. jesus. christ, orthodox church are russian orthodox 1st. oh, we have people from all over the world hour, all over the united states and canada just just from all over wherever your opinions here that come through here all the time. and this church is the, the most photographed the church on the road system in alaska where, you know, this was built in the late 18 name users, of course crews and 19 o 140 lots of things. wow. yeah. a very high

into time and no one has to go on to take a lot. you're going to show you where you're going, but you're going to have to because it's pretty narrow that you're just kind of pulling up the whole steps. this is all hand built stuff, really cool. this is all log construction and it was all hand made and they're getting dry rod from the inside out. and of course the roof needs replacing and that needs redone. and, and the probably end up having to have the fire suppression, a few other things to preserve the icons and everything else in there. but it's a big project probably anywhere from half a 1000000 to a $1000000.00. probably just, even though it's a little sample, it's very hard to raise the kind of funds you gotta have big donors. and one thing that we found is, is you know, at some point they were opposed to making it commercial in tourism. and so we will, because there was an actor perish and especially some of the older generation didn't want to make it even historic. they wanted to, you know,

preserve it and not, not take donation. so much like that. but, but now we've changed, you know, we'd like to share our faith and share it with others and, and, and bring people in to be able to see it. and they loved to give good, good hearts. sure. for people. and there's a lot of people leave, you know, even every penny counts and have a few dollars or 5 or 10, maybe a 20 a good lord willing who in a few years it'll be like no. and it will stay that way for the next 100 years plus . so and hopefully the parish will grow with prisoners and members as we go forward and people learn more about the orthodox space. the on july, the 8th 1941 german troops entered the stony of from the south soviet soldiers and

civilians for the enemy courageously on the stony and soil, with thousands of casualties held up. the federal down in the us wants to, but we are giving you 50 feeling it but i'm not sure if our cuter what city of even as the beauty we bought the what is pushing that during the years following the safety of victory, a large number of monuments loveless and burial sites were rented to on of those who had fallen in the wall to get the vs. however, recently, many of them have either been demolished vandalized or completely neglected as a result of the of those who do their best for present once it left to the memory. so as to prevent rewrite history and re made consciousness profile for the month. so

the 1st time this nicole were as st juvenile a worth of that explanation hearing was. so last time we are in the south central portion of the stage and the building that we're in right now. it was built about 20142014. it was our 1st service over the course of a couple years they built the church here. the made the teammate is, is i grew up with friends in a very traditional and they called confessional,

this ran family kind of parish. i was a lutheran pastor for almost about 10 years, and i accepted a position that i lived in her steering rosella and 2000. and we moved here. and i, well, i guess arrogantly, i thought, well, i'm going to go to alaska and make them louis ring. and, well, when we came to alaska, i believe it was saying herman of alaska that pointed as far as that the orthodox church. when we came in contact with the church, we met the people, we attend services and there was absolutely no question in my mind. or in our mind we as a family, we encourage that orthodox who was our home in our whole life was preparing us to come back to the orthodox church. and as you did the development payable payable and i last core municipal and i

personally that the payment and ident religion, the legend generally in the idea that there's federal when i have kept the same kind of former students interest, they want to go to why don't come out, that's what i mean, that's not my phone going to if and if we have to, if i'm going to one of those categories that explains the shop, that is this part of the placement. this progress generally doesn't your point across your which sort of jump on a good vision of the fungus control stories and you have an interesting sitting out of town longer for them, which is totally fine. really cool. cool. okay. i don't see any when again, i got away from people around town on friday and so this time yeah, sam. ok by safe penny for engineers manufacturing. somebody of this pack up with them. definitely get advice. finally, when i'm ready to finish that up,

my them. all right, so i'm going to north the sound a little cross upcoming in this like i move in, i think more keisha going investing less are for us to come from. oh, it's again was tell you this will literally take us like you let me go to the community. 6 or the clinic is the pause and somebody's going to make it sound quite silly. me see any problems with this? can you pull it up? i think that's that's try me. yeah, we'll try to me. ok crossing, instead of your i said for some come with them and believe in i think more thing if i know you're familiar with cuz i don't think there's even if there's any interest needed from us. but so that's the one that has, like, like, i mean, you get to deal with the night service because it's because it's quicker that's outside more instructional costs. which day

hi, the soonest i looked into and i saw a true and all that good said i from what do you i'm a little us way. so you know, a lot of new york here. i made arrangements to point to which to all of this same stuff the and then i just said otherwise come up with some new shrub the kids golf with so thank you for finding it. it's fun. yeah. so the proper protocol that the web, the kind of thing, what i had a question is like a name and you just fill out the best card cuz i was when he is in epic sites. what time does a right to that?

because the way and then the other, the other stuff that i have pretty much pam. i said was that it tonight. so then i noticed that it was a said yes much that's gonna lay. so it's kind of frustrating, which case hasn't had no, i mean i've seen a lot built on the space and i've had zillow, but they always ask you if it was like that i could just uh, labor based in lubbock and i'm param, scholarship, go, look, i know that that's good. i don't think we're going and even the best credit. that's good. there's no sales person, but i find them. there's no real quickly, you know, that's different towards the lower questionnaire questionnaire and the story. i'm with glad that we drop it in with us to and 50 of them. i did that. but just as soon as i didn't know i didn't come up. i'm wondering when do i need to take it? i'm done. i give them time time took so you don't know is there somebody else?

i don't want to go out and i talked to the switching in feeling dm's name did have an sco sandboxing thing here, and i suddenly, and then you guys are going to be of course, as me as that all of the printer. so typically look, joking, you need to pay a bill to the to look to get the fact that stuff in the vehicle yet the, the, in the early is yours of the russian america. calling that the charge was to go and produce economic value primarily through for and so the, the russians hired the, the l u and the elliptic people and,

and engaged these people in getting for like from the sea otters and perhaps seals see why ends and, and others like that because they recognize that back in, in moscow where the, the, the more elite people live that there was a market for prefers. and that was important, or i says one day coming from or us that they for us to beats with them. and they were trade for beats, the very early rest and for traders could bring these beats over many bits. so many beats. they could make a lot of money trading beats for, for the common also said the native hunter wanted to get a gun to see if they wanted to trade for a gun. they would spend the gun on the rifle for

a so call they'd have to match the height of the rifle with 1st. that was a trait. that's how they traded in those days. but today, in acreage, we have a winter carnival called anchorage for rendezvous. and, and we celebrate some of our traditions, and one of the traditions is, is this for the tramping of, for, and the selling of it? there's actually a marketplace right here during, for a rendezvous, or we call it for randi we're firs are sold. and so it's, it's kind of part of our tradition is still in the fun part. and we have a winter carnival that is the largest winter carnival in north america. the

. this is our brand of the winter fund, and we're at the center of celebrating the, the last the winter, even though we'll have winter here for probably another 6 weeks. but we're celebrating the last part of winter and the hint of spring with blue sky and goods sun and the there's have been going on for i think this is the 80 year of the address for under quite connection with the anchorage for rendezvous, or at least some kind of special connection. last year i was selected to serve in the position of what's called lowered trapper. and so i was chosen probably because i had served in elected office in alaska. i served in our legislature,

but also is the lieutenant governor of glasgow. and i've been engaged in quite a number of boards and come measures and other community service activities right here in anchorage disposable acreage, for rendezvous. since i was child the biggest event and, and just still the biggest event today are the dog sled races. and we were able to enjoy them and once the once in a while, we would come to anchorage from the notary. but more often i would listen to the dogs lead races on the radio and we'd hear about the today. we came out with 5 of our 8 grandchildren who sent you

the uh say wow, this is what's called a sprint. that means they're running as fast the whole way. the what's really interesting is sometimes the dogs are a, they're not group and dogs, you know, they, they're training out in the country if they're not used to be around people. so they come to downtown acreage, there's all kinds of smells and things. and the dog is going to and they come in here and they hear people sharing and the to it, it's so difficult for them. so it's a good measures going to want to somehow get his dogs around people too. so they're

not social security is the, the, the rabbit collapse of the ottoman empire gave the arabs hope for independence. but the colonial power saw their future differently. great britain and france agreed on the seizure of the arab lands under the guise of the so called mandate of the league of nations. this bible play caused particular indignation in

a rent which was to get under the control of the british. in may 1920 unrest with claim for independence broke out, both assuming and that she took part in it. soon the rallies turned into a real uprising against the invaders. more than 130000 people took up arms. britain urgently began to transfer reinforcements to a rack and used aircraft radius war. secretary, winston churchill birds, the use of chemical weapons against the rebels. and general ser i, elmer held a border, the destruction of any village where weapons were found burning a village properly takes a long time. an hour or more according to sized paulding recalled cynically. in his memoirs, the mediaeval girl, the paid off, the revolt was crushed. however, separate his empire had to make serious concessions. in 1921,

it recognized bustle. the 1st as the king of a rag can gave part of the power to representatives of the local bobby elation. via raggy revolt marked the beginning of the national consolidation of the country and became an important milestone on the way to final independence the society of to your credit and concept fence. you know, it was a fine you that arises serious of how you lucian's, on the, on the west and ukrainian side issues about their own strengths, illusions about the strength of the russian opponents. basically the, you know, the care to rush or, and your crime was adored, i just have to be checked in and the whole structure would come come some come into the solution. so i've been shopping with the

the 2 remote explosive devices to at least 95 people and another 211 in the wrong 3 incremental ration of a general who was killed by us like inside to 20 business leaders says the assassination of their how much the official name, they would not go on the product calling the act 8 clinton example of this ready aggression pacific inventory like a residential building out of the hospital in the central gaza. fire breaks out, fluffing and wounded. this is the time the idea of conduct must've.
