God created the heavens and the earth.

He created man and gave him the blessings of heaven. But man sinned and walked away from God.

God, however, did not destroy man,

but promised to send the Savior.

This Savior is Jesus Christ.



Holy Virgin Mary made a promise never to get married, but to devote her life to serving God.

The priests handed it to the 80-year-old widower Joseph, who was Mary's father.

One day the Archangel Gabriel appeared at Joseph’s house and said to Mary:

"You will give birth to a son and name him Jesus,

He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High,

and the Lord God will give him a throne..."


In those days came a decree from Caesar Augustus

make a census of the whole earth.

And everyone went to register in their own city.

Likewise, Joseph and his pregnant wife Mary set out from the city of Nazareth, where they lived,

to the homeland of our ancestors -

to Bethlehem.

There they stopped outside the city, in a cave.


At night, the Virgin Mary gave birth to a baby - the Son of God, the Savior of the world.

Mary swaddled him and put him in a manger,

where do they put feed for livestock?

On the eighth day after the birth of the Child, Joseph and Mary gave him the name Jesus, which means “Savior.”


In that country there were shepherds in the field tending their flock.

Suddenly an Angel of the Lord appeared to them,

who announced the Nativity of Christ.


And the shepherds decided to go to Bethlehem and see

what happened there, what the Lord told them about.

They hastened and came and found Mary and Joseph,

and the Child lying in the manger.

When they saw it, they told about what happened

announced to them about the Child.


Meanwhile, the wise men arrived in Jerusalem, studying the stars.

They saw a new unusual star appear in the sky

and realized that the expected Messiah had been born.

The same star walked across the sky before the Magi,

showing them the path led just there,

where the baby Jesus was born.


Mary and Joseph had already moved by this time

from the cave to the city.

The Magi entered the house and saw the mother and baby.

They bowed to Jesus to the ground and presented gifts: gold, like a king, incense, like God, and myrrh, like a man.


The child grew and became stronger in spirit,

filled with wisdom

and the grace of God was upon Him.


For God so loved the world,

that he gave his only begotten Son,

so that everyone who believes in Him

did not perish, but had eternal life.



Christmas- a great, bright and wonderful holiday for believers all over the world.
