@Peter Yam Yam 54 too much persecution. If you are any religion except for the preferred, then you have very limited work opportunities and it's dangerous to be around the prejudice army. We as nuns, don't have these specific issues, but we have others for example I've been spat on a lot lately, I've been pushed for no reason and the list goes on
@@nunchristina God knows your suffering soon a earthquake will destroy the anti christ A plaque of locusts were sent a few months ago god's heart cry's for you
some of us don’t, anyone researching and finding out what Israel does to Palestinians both Christian and Muslims and yet still support Israel are definitely not Christian.
Nigerian (Roman) Catholic here. You are great .🙏🏾❤️May God protect you and protect all Christians facing hardships and persecution in my country and the whole world 🙏🏾❤️
@@nunchristina out off topic but some people in the band looks like Northern European are there boys who don’t look Palestinian actually palestinians??? Just curious I have seen Syrians and Libanese who looks western but never palestinians? Greetings from BELGUIM
@Jamel B the band is Orthodox. And there were MANY Orthodox before the 6 day war. Most of those many migrated back to the country of origin (especially the Greeks) but of those that stayed, there are many nationalities. And on top of that, many Orthodox have married people who are not native to Israel in any way. For example a good friend of mine here married a Finnish man. Many of those Orthodox study overseas for more opportunities and some will marry outside of their race and settle the family here. I don't know if that makes any sense lol Long story short. Many Orthodox here that are not native Palestinians.
Well, that is enough to warm the heart of this Orthodox Christian with Scottish ancestry. I never realised our Arab and Syrian brothers were so close to us, and that warms my heart even more. God be with you all! Christ is Risen!
There is NO connection...what we see is a combination of girl guides, boy scouts, silly uniforms, mimicry of Scotts Regimental Pipers from the time of the British Protectorate, Moslems key keepers from the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, with the Greek Orthdox clergy. Its all a big mish mash and a sign of cultural confusion and mess.
Just a littel history fact, middel eastern aren't arabs, they never were. True arabs are those who live in the gulf. The middel east was conolinsed by arabs and you can guess what happened then( cultural assimilation, perscutions etc. ) So Middel eastren ( syria, lebanon, palestine, israel etc.) Were never arabs from the begining. That's why they don't look like the the true arabs . Have a beautiful day. Truly He is Risen ✝️.
@@nikaidoakira5760 And a little more history, the bagpipe is originally an Persian instrument that was brought to the British Isles by the Celts who migrated from Mesopotamia.
@@wolfgangreineke6666 good comments, I was only thinking that I was pleased it was not the Scottish bagpipes being played as they are too loud for that type of close small street, as a kid the pipers playing would hurt my young ears, cheers.
Christ has risen! This is so beautiful. The Arab Orthodox are full of life, full of vitality. Very nice, thank you for this video. Greetings from Romania.
Palestinian and Arab Christians are remarkable people. Maintaining their faith over centuries against all odds. Blessed are they in Jesus' name. Respect from Australia.
It’s hard being Christian in Christs holy land. Unfortunately not many are left. Most Christians Palestinians left. Only 200,000 remains. They face many racism from different directions. It tough being a minority inside of a minority. Don’t forget about the Christian Palestinians and the Christians of the Middle East.
@@Orthodoxpalestinian1 Because of zionist settlers 😂 once upon muslims, christians and ethnic jews were living in peace.But the foreign occupier settlers destroyed it. And you people are also supporting them.
These videos of the bands processing on Palm Sunday have brought me such joy! As Christians we read the accounts in the Bible, and meditate on them. These scenes have provided my impoverished imagination sights & sounds to consider, that the entry of Our Lord into the Holy City was probably accompanied by such music. To see the priests, and, finally, the Patriarch, process, with such dignity, joy and radiating love to the crowd gives a tiny glimpse of that great day long ago.
We're a minority here too...a persecuted one. It's a different experience when you're in a place like Greece and it's the norm with a church on every block. Glory to God!
@@nunchristina Thanks, Sister (sorry, no monasteries here in Hawaii, unsure about proper form of address). It would be a little different in one of the big cities like New York, more like Greece with multiple churches established by different immigrant communities.
@@nunchristina Wow, everyone knows about the icon! No, my wife and I attend the Greek church in downtown Honolulu, the icon in question is at the Russian church in Kailua, a small town on the eastern coast of the island of Oahu. We already have a 40-45 minute drive from our home in Central Oahu to get to Divine Liturgy each Sunday, would be at least another 30 minutes to get to the Myrrh streaming icon. We hope to get there someday; our priest gets a generous supply of the myrrh, I have some at home. My wife and I just made one year from our chrismation. What monastery are you with?
@@nunchristina Christians are not persecuted in Israel, stop spreading lies, how can you say you're persecuted when you posted a video showing you freely celebrating your faith(and even with Israeli police securing the event), either you don't know what that word means or you need an history lesson about how real persecution looks like, hint, it's not what we see in the video.
IMPOSSIBLE Not to clap along with these UNAFRAID and PROUD Orthodox Christians!!!!!!! My Heart Soars!!!!! BRAVO SOU!!!!!!!! GOD PROTECT OUR ORTHODOX BRETHREN THROUGHOUT THE MIDDLE EAST!!!!!!!!! Greek American from NYC
Orthodox Christian 🫂🫂🫂 - this is the west that don’t have - the monks and monasteries that is still intact within community - peace ❤ from your Muslim Sister Zurina ❤️
Scottish Presbyterian here we could do with the fun side of the march God bless our Orthodox brothers and sisters may you all walk with the grace of God.
Je suis du Québec et orthodoxe de part mon père qui est syrien (l’église d’Antioche). Ma mère qui est Canadienne française me raconte souvent les abus de l’église et du pape au Québec et je comprend totalement le désenchantement des québécois en général. Je crois que l’église orthodoxe pourrait redonner un souffle de vie spirituelle au Québec et j’espère que notre saint patron, saint Jean baptiste, sera commémoré de nouveau sur nos terres! Je vous conseille Jonathan Pageau et sa chaîne RU-vid Monde symbolique! Que Dieu vous bénisse et vous garde pour de nombreuses années!
@@davidjacobs8558 It's not terribly weird considering the historic British influence influence on the military traditions over there, but also because the free reed instruments tend to play in the mixolydian mode, which is part of their cultural music naturally, so finding a band instrument that will translate to your music would probably concentrate around the one that is naturally suited to it.
Χριστός ἀνέστη. Christ is Risen! Krisztus feltámadt! The music is breathtaking. It is full of positive vibration. Thank you for sharing this video. Greetings from Budapest, Hungary.
Just watching the movie DUNE remake and the Emperor handed over the spice trade and there was a legion of bag pipers playing a cool tune at the ceremonial handover.
Respect and love from Belgium !! We love CULTURE !! PEACE !!!!!!! May GOD his love, shine on you Whatever believes = We are all brothers and sisters !!! Respect !!
There are many challenges to the Christian, and especially the Catholic, faith in the USA nowadays. It is inspiring to watch people--young, old, and all ages in between--express their faith proudly and beautifully. You are an inspiration, at a time when the faithful in America need to be inspired.
This is wonderful. What a lovely sound! Gosh, in the Netherlands Easter exultation is limited to singing Handel's Thou art the Glory. Wish we could be a more expressive about our faiths and emotions overhere...
