A Russian church rents our church facilities.
 Each fall they build this beautiful display in our sanctuary.  Makes me think of this hymn:
We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing;
he
chastens and hastens his will to make known;
the wicked oppressing now cease
from distressing: 
sing praise to his Name, he forgets not his own. 
Beside us
to guide us, our God with us joining,
 ordaining, maintaining his kingdom
divine;
so from the beginning the fight we were winning:
 thou, Lord, wast at
our side: all glory be thine!
 We all do extol thee, thou leader
triumphant,
and pray that thou still our defender wilt be.
 Let thy congregation
escape tribulation: thy Name be ever praised! O Lord, make us free!
