Today is St Nicholas of Myra :)

Blessed Feast to all
If you're Greek ;)
It's still almost two weeks away for most of the Orthodox Church (says the person with a foot in each camp)

Really? OCA also has December 6 as his feast day. Which churches (non-Old Calendar churches) celebrate it two weeks from now?

It is always on December 6th, but on the Old Calendar December 6 is 13 days away.

Very true, and still is for many. Many more than just Greek though currently celebrate on the New Calendar, at least over here in the USA. :) I read the thread at 3am in the morning, so the most of the world part didn’t click.

It doesn’t really matter though in the context of this thread - as it is a blessed feast no matter whether it is Old or New calendar December 6 (19). :)

O who loves Nicholas the saintly,
O who serves Nicholas the saintly,

Him will Nicholas receive,
And give help in time of need:
Holy Father Nicholas!*

He who dwells in God's holy mansions,
Is our help on the land and oceans,

He will guard us from all ills,
Keep us pure and free from sins
Holy Father Nicholas!*

Holy Saint, hearken to our prayer,
Let not life drive us to despair,

All our efforts shall not wane,
Singing praises to your name:
Holy Father Nicholas!

O kto kto Nikolaja l'ubit,
O kto kto Nikolaja sluzit,

Tomu svjatyj Nikolaj,
Na vsjakj cas pomahaj:
Nikolaj, Nikolaj!

Blessed feast!

I took the day off and had the honor of serving with Metropolitan Tikhon at St Nicholas Cathedral in DC! Small crowd because it is a weekday, but a good time nonetheless.
