I was fascinated by the wooden buildings in Mandrogi. the uprights of some buildings were very similar to the totem poles of Canada and may have a Finnish influence. After all this is Karelia which I believe in the past belonged to Finland. I am familiar with the name Karelia from hearing the suite of that name by Sibelius, who was, of course, Finnish.
First of all thanks to Fat Prophet for your interest. I see from your blog you are having trouble commenting. To get back to my assessed service. Criticism albeit constructive is harder for some to take than others. I felt a little crushed after my assessed service but then remembered I had recorded it on my dictaphone. I listened to it all through and although my assessors were quite right about me speaking a little quickly and rushing from item to item, I was actually very pleased with the content of my sermon and how I presented it. So I have decided to take heart. I highly recommend other trainees to record your services. You can hear your good points and your bad and there is no argument about it, it is all caught on the recorder.
