Video of ROCA's St. Michael's Cathedral Yolka in Odessa, with Metropolitan Agafangel presiding

"Unless ye become as the little children, ye shall not enter the Kingdom of God!" 


Comment: May God bless and preserve these beautiful angelic children,  and all the innocent children of the world, from all evil, ...and from all famine and war.
For those who do not know what a 'Yolka' is, [literally, a Fir tree or a 'Christmas Tree'], it is a traditional Christmas party for children, which is a combination of scripted pious readings and carols, all praising Christ's Nativity. It is entirely Christ centered.

Every Orthodox culture, has its own  version of this Nativity celebration.
