According to the ancient Ukrainian tradition, on Christmas day - TopicsExpress



          

According to the ancient Ukrainian tradition, on Christmas day (celebrated January 7th because of the discrepancy between the old and the new calendars), kolyaduvalnyky (carolers) go from house to house, greeting families. This clip shows the carolers visiting president Poroshenkos home. After their performance, the president addresses the nation. He says, our country, Ukraine, has belonged with the European Christian civilization for about 1,000 years, but the consolidated Ukrainian nation is, in a way, born just now. Let us continue to stand united. Let us respect and obey holy commandments of God. Let us strive for peace. And please, remember our troops on the line of fire. Pray for them. https://youtube/watch?v=JlwLvHFEN-8&feature=player_detailpage&list=PLCPC7CzMu8osAMM4BhygtRMKIlRgBHHqJ
