CHRISTMAS EVE DIVINE LITURGY

On Sunday, January 5, Christmas Eve will be celebrated in Prelacy Churches with Divine Liturgy followed by the Jrakalooyts – Lighting of the Candles service.

Given that Christmas Eve Divine Liturgy is traditionally celebrated in the evening, and according to church canon we do not celebrate Divine Liturgy more than once on the same altar on the same day, on Sunday morning a prayer service will be held during which pastors will deliver their sermons.  Requiem service will also take place.

Divine Liturgy will take place in the evening.

The Prelate will celebrate Divine Liturgy and deliver the sermon at St. Sarkis Church in Pasadena.

By the ordinance of His Eminence, Rev. Fr. Boghos Tinkjian will visit the Colorado parish where he will celebrate Christmas Divine Liturgy.  Rev. Fr. Khoren Babochian will celebrate Divine Liturgy at the Corona parish.
