Hi John,
I come from a multiethnic and multireligious region of Russia. The prthodox Christmas IS an official holiday, a day off for all, but celebrated by the Orthodox. And it has not been commercionalized as the Western Christmas yet? fortunately. Most people who keep the holy day prefer to go churches, you can observe the mess on TV.
I guess some gifts may occur, but most of the gists have already been presented for the New Year, which is the "pop" holiday.
Well, what else. My family is Muslim, but I have a deep respect for Christmas and do feel the magic of the Christmas season.
