Nice church!



For one thing, notice that the congregation is the center of action. The Liturgy is performed on behalf of and also towards the congregation.

BTW -- this is in Caonstantenople/Istanbule. Becasue of persecution there are not many Christians there anymore. The Patriarch's activities are regulated. My brotherinlaw's Bishop used to perform liturgy in several different churches in a single day (different languages and diocese) just to insure that the Turkish goverment wouldn't close the Christian churches down.

(So......If you were thinking of criticising the above for slight attendance, DON'T! Instead, pray for the Church in persecution.)
