    I can see that it can be difficult for old congregations to accept the service in another language. I am Greek Orthodox and I can see on my church which is mostly Greeks that there are a lot of negative comments when they try to introduce parts of the liturgy in English. And is only fair when all the regulars are Greeks over 70 years old and barely speak English.

    This was beautiful. I'm new to Orthodoxy, can someone explain to me why this concert didn't occur on January 7th of next year? I'm not trying to stir the pot, I'm genuinely curious, because I thought old calendarist celebrate Christmas on January 7th.

    • @spotsedu
      @spotsedu 10 днів тому

      Thank you for your comment and question. You are correct that we celebrate the Feast of the Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ on January 7 according to the Gregorian or New Calendar, which is December 25 according to the Julian or Old Calendar, which latter calendar we as traditionalist Orthodox Christians maintain and observe. This concert, however, was not the liturgical celebration of the Feast of the Nativity, but was rather a public performance of carols, which are traditionally sung throughout the period before and after the actual day of the Nativity. The date of the concert was also constrained by considerations of the availability of the venue, as well the availability of members of the choir, many of whom spend the weeks surrounding the Nativity elsewhere with their families.
