United in Prayer - Maranatha, 15 December 2022

Written By Communication & PR Department Communication

Start of the Christmas Fast (Maronite & Syriac Orthodox Churches)

And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father's only son, full of grace and truth. (John 1:14)

This is the month that carries all of the joys: the liberation of slaves, the pride of the free, the crowning of doors, the entertainment of bodies,

And with his love he throws purple as it is thrown on kings. Praise be to you, O glorious son of virginity. (The fifth hymn of Christmas hymns by St. Ephrem the Syrian)
