Today, we rejoice, but we also remember the cost of Ukrainians fighting for the right to their own traditions.
Despite all the attempts to distort the most precious things, the festivities and carols, the nativity scene and didukhs, kutia and star - the symbol of Christ's eternal reign - are our cultural code.
The beauty of the Ukrainian Christmas shines in the world to the colours of ancient folk songs and the melody of "Shchedryk". It lives in our hearts. May the light continue to conquer the darkness.
We wish you resilience, health and prosperity.
Take care of your families and take care of your own. We are grateful to the defenders of Ukraine, thanks to whom we have the opportunity to come together, bless the dinner and say a prayer by the festive candle.
Christ is born!
Let us praise Him!
