THE FOREFEAST OF THE NATIVITY
Be thou ready, Bethlehem, Eden hath opened unto all. Ephratha, prepare thyself, for now, behold, the Tree of Life hath blossomed forth in the cave from the holy Virgin. Her womb hath proved a true spiritual Paradise, wherein the divine and saving Tree is found, and as we eat thereof we shall all live, and shall not die as did Adam. For Christ is born now to raise the image that had fallen aforetime.
Thank you again, Father. This is a timely reminder in a world that has largely forgotten why Christmas is celebrated at all. Your prayers, God bless.
Thank you Father, your videos are always so timely! May I ask, what exactly is the Orthodox view on headscarves for women? Greeks and Cypriots do not wear them (from what I've seen) but Orthodox Christians of other nationalities do (mostly)
Thank you, God bless you
Amen, Thankyou father, God bless, good start to the week, in my prayers always father!.
