The Mar Thoma Syrian Church on Primrose Road will celebrate its 10th 'Green Christmas' this year.
The church adopted the tradition of celebrating the festival in an eco-friendly manner by using recycled products.
This year's 25-foot Christmas tree is made of coconut shells, leaves and straw, collected from members of the church. Around 20 parishioners worked on the tree for three weeks, painting the materials and using a pulley to put them up.
In the previous years, the tree was decorated using plastic bottles, old tyres, cloth scraps and newspapers, among other things.
The inaugural lighting of the tree will be done on Sunday by Reverend Dr Sham P Thomas, church vicar, followed by the carol service in the evening.
