Božić (Orthodox Christmas) 2022
Mir Božiji, Hristos se rodi!
Мир Божији, Христос се роди!
Peace of God, Christ is born!
Božić (Christmas) services of 2022 took place on Thursday, January 6, 2022 (Badnje veče or Christmas Eve) and the Holy Nativity of our Lord and God and Savior Jesus Christ was Friday, January 7, 2022. Usually we have many people (both Serbian Orthodox and non-Orthodox) come to our parish to see the blessing of the Badnjak (Serbian Yule Log) on Christmas Eve followed by a Vigil Service and great fellowship. This year, we were hit with an unexpected snow storm a few hours prior and during the Badnjak Blessing Service. The weather and the very recent rise in Covid-19 (Omicron variant) cases in our community triggered far less turnout this year. However, we still had the faithful at our services and many were watching our livestream - Thank you! May God bless you all in 2022! Mir Bozji! Hristos Se Rodi! “Peace of God! Christ is Born!”
