I’m going to talk about fast.
Fast means No eating. Can you be patient with no eating?
People can’t eat for 40 days.
Until Christmas Eve.
They can’t eat
meat, fish, dairy products, and sweets.
Dairy products are milk, cheese, butter, and so on. They only have vegetables or water.
Not all the people do it, but it’s a habit in Greece.
On Christmas day in the morning,
they go to church. The ceremony began in the early morning. It lasts about 1 hour. During the ceremony, people kept standing up and sometimes pray with the cross.
Then they receive bread and wine from priest there.
After this is done, they can go home and eat special Christmas dishes!!
