Merry Christmas from Ozolnieki, Latvia



There were two Christmas services in Ozolnieki. As we expected Christmas Eve was very lovely. There were many more people as never before with more than 70 people and many children attending the service. As is the Latvian tradition, there was a good Christmas meal following the service.


The second service was held the next day, on December 25th, The First Christmas Day. Expectations were for just a few people, but we were happy to have more than 20 people for the service.

Perhaps I am not precise in English but in Latvia we celebrate Christmas Eve, The First Christmas Day, The Second Christmas Day and The Third Christmas Day.

In Christ,

Rev. Uldis Fandejevs

Ozolnieki, Latvia
