The videos of August 16 and 17, 2008 are from the ACROD Diocesan Pilgrimage at the wooden Rusyn style church built in 2003 at the diocesan Camp Nazareth, located in Mercer,PA. The singing of Many Years or Mnohaja Lit ( the Polychronos in Greek) is common in Orthodox practice, asking God's blessings on the clergy, the faithful, a newly baptized person, newlyweds, donors..etc...as the case may be.
May God bless my fellow Orthodox!

This is one of the "Mnohaja Lita" melodies not heard in the Ruthenian Byzantine Catholic Church, which is too bad. I like this melody.
