All the services at the Greek Orthodox church in Jebel Ali are in Arabic. They don't have a Greek priest. Lots of Greeks seem to attend anyway. We went for Easter last year and found it to be quite similar to a Greek service but in Arabic.

We went to Ibn Battuta Mall this morning, and investigated the Greek Orthodox Church. You go past the Jebel Ali hospital and take a right behind it and there is a cluster of non-Moslem places of worship - a Catholic Church, an Evangelical Centre, and round the back, there's an Orthodox Church where Arabic seems to be the language of choice. Husbad found out that there is a service there at 6 pm this evening, but is not clear whether it would be in Arabic or Greek.

It looks as if they might have celebrated last night, if you find out if there's something on tonight, could you be kind enough to post here, please? Thank you!
