His Eminence Mor Dionysius John Kawak welcomed all the Prelates attending the concert ( His Eminence The Most Rev. Metropolitan Elpidophoros, His Grace Bishop David, His Grace the Right Reverend Irinej) and everybody. In his welcoming speech Archbishop Kawak wished that this beautiful initiative becomes an Annual Tradition. He also mentioned that the proceed of this concert will go to Syria to help our brothers and sisters who are in need. The concert was a showcase of spiritual sacred hymns of the Christmas season. Professional Choirs of the families of the Eastern and Oriental Orthodox Churches were involved by portraying the Ancient Apostolic Tradition of the Holy Incarnation and Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ. Our Archdiocesan Choir conducted by Very Rev. Fr. Joseph Chamoun and Mrs. Elis Kallah prepared a beautiful performance from our traditional Christmas Hymns.
