Summary/Abstract: This study is the result of field research that we have conducted in some of the villages situated on the shores of Mures River, where a Serbian community still exists and therefore I managed to identify some important people that know the customs and popular traditions of the Church. The content of the article presents the elements of the Christmas rituals, those that are still retained and used, as well as those rituals from the past that have been lost over time and are no longer practiced today. We have also tried to identify the causes that contributed to the forgetting or loss of these Christmas habits and rituals of the Serbian community living on the shores of Mures River.
