I AM BECOMING ELDER

Taraz 02.04.2007

My name is Maxim Smerichinsky. I am 15 years old. Free time I spend in Hesed. I learn many interesting things through a window of the computer. I try to become a part of a community, I get acquainted with Traditions and customs of the Jewish people. I have difficult character. But in a circle of the friends I on the sly began to understand, that constant quarrels it is not the best way of dialogue.

This year on Purim I played king Ahashverosh, "which (according to the script), empress Ester has made wise and good". Acting on a stage, I have got skill freely to keep, to recite verses, to sing songs, to feel a rhythm and to dance under melodious Jewish music.

The special gratitude to the main sponsor "Joint" and Alexandr Baron, and also to the director of our Hesed Helena Dmitrieva that I have Hesed, the house in which to me are always glad!
