Across Europe and the Middle East, celebrations of Orthodox Christmas are underway. Unlike the Gregorian calendar, where Christmas falls on December 25, countries following the ancient Julian calendar celebrate Christmas on January 7 ✨

Watch live the Reception of His Grace Abuna Enbakom, Archbishop of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church in the Holy Land at Manger Square Bethlehem, West Bank ????

???? At 7:45pm (GMT), a Christmas service by Patriarch Kirill in the Christ the Saviour Cathedral will be held in Moscow, and from 8.40pm (GMT), you can watch the Greek Orthodox Midnight Mass, headed by His Beatitude Patriarch Theophilos III, The Greek Orthodox Patriarch, at the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem.
