Chrysogonos, Theodota, Evodias, & Eutychianus, the Martyrs

Epistle Reading: St. Paul's Letter to the Hebrews 11:9-10; 32-40

The Sunday before Nativity in the Greek Orthodox Church is also known as the Sunday of the Forefathers. The Gospel Reading focuses on the lineage of Jesus Christ by commemorating the ancestors of Jesus Christ, from Adam to Joseph the Betrothed. We highlight the long line of individuals who contributed to Christ's coming.

As preparation for the Nativity, the Sunday of the Forefathers serves as a time of spiritual preparation for the upcoming celebration of Christmas. It reminds believers of the historical context and the long-awaited arrival of the Messiah.
Essentially, this special Sunday emphasizes the importance of understanding Christ's lineage and the significance of His birth within the broader context of salvation history.

Our Eastern Orthodox service is conducted mainly in English and Greek, and LIVE is streamed from Saint Mark Greek Orthodox Church in Boca Raton, Florida.
