Рождество в Восточной Европе

Христиане в Восточной Европе празднуют Рождество.

В Армении и в армянских диаспорах во всем мире, люди зажигают свечи в церквях и принимают участие в Рождественской службе.

Православные христиане в этом году празднуют Рождество 7 января по старому юлианскому календарю. Российская, греческая и грузинская православная церковь и другие православные общины также празднуют Рождество в этот день.

Редакция сайта Сommonspace.eu поздравляет с Рождеством всех армян мира и всех православных христиан.

Она считается одной из старейших сохранившихся церквей в Армении, известная своей изысканной архитектурой классического периода, которая повлияла на многие другие армянские церкви. Церковь была построенна католикосом Комитасом в 618 году на месте мавзолея IV века, содержащего остатки мученицы Св. Рипсиме, который был воздвинут в 395 г. (фото из архива)
