An incredibly warm atmosphere surrounded the church. The building was adorned with garlands of lanterns, flowers, and angel figurines. A particular highlight was the nativity scene – a symbolic representation of the birth of Christ, which became the centerpiece of the Christmas decorations.

The service commenced with the reading of the Gospel, after which the congregation sang Christmas hymns. The mass was accompanied by the penetrating sounds of the organ.

Following the service, attendees exchanged greetings and good wishes. For many, this evening provided an opportunity not only to celebrate the holiday but also to feel a sense of unity with fellow believers, filled with the light and joy of Christmas.
