Why is the audio off for so much of this?? Such a beautiful service and the sound is purposely muted - so as not offend which one, lucifer or satan and all the demons?!
All praise and Glory unto eternity to Jesus Christ 🌹✝️🌹

Do you really need to ask such questions?🤔 The Greek Orthodox use a different caldendar from the Western Roman Carholic one.📅📆

[@kishwarsakina5173]

Worship is only for God. Jesus is God's messenger and his slave and a human

Turkey has a lot of churches and most of them are orthodox churches but Turkey has tons of beautiful Catholic Churches as well. There might be maximum 1 million Christians in Turkey but in my opinion this number is so high. I guess 500.000 Christians is much more realistic. As a Turkish Chriastian I recommend you to come and visit our beautiful churches.
