On Sunday, November 24, the Church of Sts Constantine and Helene in Perth, Western Australia, became a hub of faith and festivity as the Parish Sunday School students showcased their much-anticipated end-of-year Christmas performance.

Following the Matins and Hierarchical Divine Liturgy, presided over by His Grace Bishop Elpidios of Perth, the young performers captivated the audience during a celebratory morning tea held in the Parish Hall.

Guided by their dedicated teachers, led by Presbytera Stamatia Gerovasilis, the children chanted the Apolytikion of Sts Constantine and Helene, narrated the story of the Nativity, and brought joy with a medley of Christmas carols.

Their heartfelt efforts were warmly received by the community and honoured with blessings and Christmas gifts from His Grace.
