Philadelphia, PA – The spirit of Christmas arrived a few days ago and was celebrated by the parishioners of Evangelismos Greek Orthodox church. Tucked away, under the church, the community huddled. One by one the Greek school students recited poems in Greek about the birth of Christ. Bravo, bravo! Beaming parents yelled out as the kids joined together to sing about Christmas. The little but spirited congregation continues to keep the holiday tradition alive in Greek.
