Christmas Celebration

Christmas Celebration

We celebrated Christmas 2026 with a vigil service consisting of Great Compline with Litya, Matins, Hours and Divine Liturgy. The service began in darkness as the faithful gathered in anticipation of the light of Christ’s birth. The kliros was well attended with many singers who beautifully proclaimed the joyous tidings of the Incarnation throughout the night. A great number of people remained to receive Holy Communion in the early hours and were united in proclaiming ‘Christ is born! Glorify Him!’

After the service we gathered to share festive food and enjoyed an atmosphere of joy and celebration.
