Please Note:

When the Feast of the Nativity of our Lord falls on any otherday of the week, except Saturday or Sunday, in themorning (of Christmas Eve) the Royal Hours are readfollowed by the Divine Liturgy of St Basil the Great,which is preceded by Great Vespers.

However, if the day before the Nativity of Christ falls on aSaturday or Sunday, then the Royal Hours are read onFriday while the Divine Liturgy of St JohnChrysostom is celebrated on the preceding day (ChristmasEve).

If the Divine Liturgy of St John Chrysostom is celebrated onChristmas Eve, then the Divine Liturgy of St Basil iscelebrated on the Feast of the Nativity - and vice versa.

Let us keep in our Prayers all the little children who are suffering

the devastation, bereavement and destitution of warfare.May our Loving Heavenly Father keep them in His Sight,Love and Embrace forever.
