17. December 2012. A Real Christmas
This year the RCH celebrates Advent by launching a truly unique Christmas campaign entitled A fiú (The Boy). The film shows a contemporary retelling of Jesus’ birth to portray the enduring timelessness of the story and its relevance in modern society. The church also celebrates by sharing Presiding Bishop Gusztáv Bölcskei’s thoughtful words on Christmas and an article reflecting on the service of the Hungarian Reformed Church Aid’s Life Belt program, which was launched during Advent last year.
