"Come, O faithful, let us see where Christ is born..."

 Christ is born! Glorify Him!

The Nativity of Christ (source)

Come, O faithful, let us see where Christ is born, let us follow therefore, where the star is leading, together with the Magi, the Kings of the East. Angels ceaselessly hymn there, Shepherds offer their wonder and a worthy hymn, saying "Glory in the highest to Him Who is born today in the Cave from the Virgin and Theotokos, in Bethlehem of Judea.

-Kathisma from Matins for the Nativity of Christ

Through the prayers of our Holy Fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us and save us! Amen!
