Published on

Christmas should not be celebrated without understanding the reason behind its celebration, it is certainly not about getting drunk and unwrapping gifts-It has an interesting and significant meaning to us as Christians, a period of sober reflection on the birth, life and time of christ Jesus, our reconciliation and our justication are all tied to it. It is about the unspeakable love and gift of God to mankind. Merry Christmas and a happy new year. A time to offer more practical and reassuring support to those in need.
