January 7, 2007

“This holiday brings happiness and hope into millions of homes, strengthens traditional family values, and helps to fortify public morality and consensus. Christmas is the time for charity and sincere care for everyone who is in need of our assistance and sympathy,” the Presidential address said.

Vladimir Putin attended a Christmas service at the New Jerusalem Monastery’s Nativity Church, overseen by monastery head Archimandrite Nikita, to worship together with other people.
