These Holy Services celebrating the Wonderful Nativity of ourLord and Saviour, Jesus Christ - the Eternal and theIncarnate Son of God - are dedicated to all the little childrenwho suffer the devastation, bereavement and destitution caused bywarfare and the unbridled persecution of all innocent victims.

Loving, Almighty God watch over them and keep them inHis Loving Embrace forever.
