merry Christmas

Seems appropriate considering he was modelled after a saint.
Merry Christmas to all btw.

I LOVE CHRISTMAS It is my Favorite time of the year, and Advent / Christmas is my favorite liturgical season.

While we have all the secular trimmings on display, It is Always been a Spiritual Holiday for me, a very personal and private time of Quiet reflection on the Coming of Christ, which culminates with the Celebration of Christ's birth at the Nativity.

My son asked me if I was really going to two church services Sunday morning on Christmas Eve, and I told him that I have so many people at one that I want to see (plus to take a gift basket to the Reverend) and I want to attend an Advent service at the Episcopal church SO I have to juggle two services on Sunday Morning to be able to attend both churches on the same morning. Usually I just go to one or the other.

But Christmas is a CELEBRATION of Jesus' birth , the revealing of God to Humanity.....and celebrate we do.

SO I say to You as well.... MERRY CHRISTMAS !

I was raised southern baptist so I am not used to advent, formal stuff. I am not a faithful church goer I just recently started going back to church after a few years absence from church. I let political reasons keep me from church, and I cannot drive a motor vehicle. I like Christmas but mine has not been going so well. My sister usually ruins Christmas. We have not been able to put up a tree or decorate.

Sorry to hear that. I had to cut off a few people who were always ruining Christmas for me. Just remember that Christmas is a spiritual experience, and is what YOU choose to make of it. No one can take away that still, small voice of God within.....Christmas is not so much about materialism, but about Revelation, God Revealing Himself to the world.
