According to church tradition, on December 31, a prayer service is held in churches for the New Year (at the beginning of the New Year).
We thank God for the passing year and ask him for blessings for the coming year, so that he will give us mental and physical strength, strengthen our health, and heal us from illnesses.
You should take the New Year holiday as an opportunity to become better, to transform. Leave grievances, discontent, sins in the past, so that in the coming year you can love, help and support. And don't forget to take care of your soul.
And the main thing is not to forget God even in the midst of the holiday. There are wonderful words in the Holy Scriptures: “Let everything that breathes praise the Lord!” 📖 Psalm (150:6)
After all, the ability to give thanks is one of the main traits of a true Christian.
On New Year's Eve, a divine service will be held in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher: a prayer service for the New Year and a Liturgy.
In prayer, Father, on behalf of all those praying, glorifies the Lord and thanks Him for his help over the past year. He asks the Lord to bless us for the coming year, to grant us salvation, to preserve us, to protect us from all evil, to grant us good health, to multiply the days of life, to multiply blessings and to grant success in good deeds.
Those who want to ORDER a PRAYER FOR THE NEW YEAR and other prayers for themselves, family and friends, to be prayed for in Jerusalem, can do so until DECEMBER 28 ❗️ this will be my last trip to Jerusalem this year.
