The Most Blessed Father Patriarch Daniel received on Wednesday the servants of the Patriarchal Cathedral, discussing the proclamation of the Nativity of the Lord. He emphasized that the priests bring the icon of the feast into people's homes, and the message of the Nativity is conveyed not only through words but also through images, having a greater power in people's visual memory. The Patriarch explained that the mystery of the Incarnation of the Son of God becomes visible through His birth as a man, emphasizing that Orthodoxy combines the word of the Gospel with holy icons. He also highlighted the omnipotence of God's humble love, which chose to become man, and encouraged the servants for their dedication in serving the Church.
