Greek Orthodox Christmas is celebrated on December 25th, marking the birth of Jesus Christ. The holiday is a time for family gatherings, special church services, and festive meals. Many families attend the midnight service on Christmas Eve, where they light candles and sing hymns. Traditionally, Greek Orthodox families prepare a special meal that often includes roast lamb, stuffed grape leaves, and a sweet bread called Christopsomo. Homes are often decorated with a Christmas tree and a boat, symbolizing Greece's maritime heritage. The holiday emphasizes love, community, and the spirit of giving.
