Saint Demetrios' apolytikion arranged by composer Nicolas Astrinidis (1921-2010):

How come non of the Priest have ability to grow a beard likes Greek priest from
Greece. It’s just kind of funny. Now hair salons and Churches are dens of Covid and we can’t enter either. Wonder what St Demetri would do as a Greek priest in America in this test of Faith and belief. Would he mask children and withhold Communion out of fear of a virus. I wish Priest would learn to withholdHoly Communion until their Children learned why we confess and repent in order thatwedontsucfer death of our souls will receiving unworthy

Thank you deeply for such a Divine Video .. blessings 🙏☦️🙏

Merry Christmas beloved…a very special message from Santa

Bishop Saint Nicolaos of Myra the second greatest miracle worker ever lived was demoted by the history of man to a “Santa”!

Saint Nicholas the Bishop of Myra, took part in the I st Ecumenical Synod of the Christian Church where the Bishops gathered in order to describe the Holy Trinity. The Creed was named The Symbol Of Faith and this took place in Nikea the year 325 A.D

THE SYMBOL OF FAITH (of the Orthodox)

Saint Nicolas is the greatest miracle making Saint in the history of man after Moses!

In early Christianity 3rd century, there was a very well known Church Bishop who was a member of the 1st Ecumenical Synod of the Christian Church (Greek Orthodox today) who became world known not only because he was a Great Wonder Worker (miracle maker) but because he had the reputation for ~secret gift-giving~, such as putting coins in the shoes to anyone leaving them out for him to see, or by giving money to pour families who had daughters with out dowry in order for them to be able to marry and not to be send away to become prostitutes. Before joining the Church and becoming Bishop he gave all of his personal property (he came from a rich family) to the poor. He wanted to travel one time to the Holy Land and on the way a great storm broke out and the ship was to be taken apart so the crew asked the priest to pray for he was a man of God…and the storm immediately stopped. One of the sailors, who climbed up to fix the sails slipped and fell to his death. Immediately the holy Bishop approached him and said: Christ my God who has authority over life and death resurrect this man…and he was resurrected. The miracles were not only countless, they were great and this is why he got the fame of being a Great Wonder worker. After the schism of the Church in 1054AC this great Saint of God that became renown all over the world was “set on the side” not to be known in a convenient way. His very famous name of Saint Nic olas and his gift making virtues were kept in secret , and he was replaced being the Bishop of Myra with a red costume, a sleigh and some reindeer! All of this was done because by being Bishop of the first Church that was the ONLY Church in the world for the first 1054 years of Christianity he was standing as ~a lighthouse in the dark unfriendly night~ where Christians could be guided safely to the Truth the Light of the world Lord Jesus. Saint Nicolas is the the second greatest miracle making Saint ever lived, and his personal life is the greatest of testimonies of the Salvation Truth and validity of the Church He served as a Bishop and the relationship he had with God when attracting His Grace for the abundance of his miracles.

Being disguised by history as a Santa Claus bearing gifts on a sleigh, deprives all those who love Lord Jesus of the Church he served as a Bishop and everything delivered the day of Pentecost by the Holy Spirit for the Salvation of man!

The Greek Orthodox Church celebrates his memory 6 December each year.

Ierotheos Metropolitan of Naupaktos about Greek Orthodox Baptism

“Through the "rite of birth in God", holy baptism, man's nous (mind) is illuminated, freed from slavery to sin and the devil, and it is united with God.

How/why did this the second greatest miracle maker of man kind after Moses became Santa Claus?
