Friends, congratulations on the Nativity of Christ! 🕯️✨

We wish you joy, peace, and fulfillment of your most cherished desires on this bright holiday!

May barriers between people diminish, and may hearts be filled with more warmth and unity. The Savior came into the world for all, opening eternal life through His birth.

On the night of January 6-7 (Julian calendar), the Russian Orthodox Church celebrates Christmas together with the monasteries of Athos, as well as the Jerusalem, Serbian, Georgian, and Polish Orthodox Churches.

Today, January 6, 2026 — Christmas Eve! 🕯️
Orthodox Christians on Christmas Eve (January 6) spend the day in strict fasting and family anticipation of the holiday, focusing on spiritual preparation.

Christmas Eve means «the eve of the feast» (from «sochyl» — a special wheat porridge with honey/raisins eaten on the fasting evening before Christmas/Epiphany). The word is Old Slavic: «so-« (together) + «chest’» (honor) + «len’» (night of vigil/prayer).

Main Traditions

In the morning, they finish all household chores, clean, and decorate the home with fir branches or candles — without fuss or heavy work. During the day, they ask forgiveness from loved ones for past offenses to meet Christmas with a clear conscience.

Evening Customs

Until the first star (around 6:00 PM), they don’t eat — this is the peak of the Christmas fast. No guests, arguments, or fortune-telling — the day is for silence and unity. No quarreling, working, wearing dark clothes, or worldly distractions — all for inner peace before Christ’s Birth.

International Movie Day — December 28!
Friends, today the whole world celebrates the birth of cinema!
On December 28, 1895, in France, the Lumière brothers held the first paid movie screening in the «Indian Salon» hall of the Grand Café, located on the famous Boulevard des Capucines. Forty viewers watched «Arrival of the Train at La Ciotat Station» — and panicked, thinking the train was coming out of the screen! That’s how the magic of the big screen began.
🎬 Dear filmmakers! We wish you inexhaustible creative inspiration, unforgettable stories, brilliant acting performances, and films that touch audience hearts! May every frame be filled with meaning, every story with sincerity, and your cinema continue to amaze and delight! 🎥
