Service Schedule for the Nativity of Our Lord

“Today the Virgin comes to the cave
to give birth to the Eternal Word.
Hear the glad tidings and rejoice, O universe!
Glorify with the angels and the shepherds
the Eternal God, Who is willing to appear as a little child!”
-Kontakion, Forefeast of the Nativity
