A Christmas Prayer

A Christmas Prayer

Loving Father, Help us remember the birth of Jesus,
that we may share in the song of the angels,
the gladness of the shepherds,
and worship of the wise men.

Close the door of hate and open the door of love all over the world. Let kindness come with every gift and good desires with every greeting. Deliver us from evil by the blessing which Christ brings, and teach us to be merry with clear hearts.

May the Christmas morning make us happy to be thy children, and Christmas evening bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts, forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus' sake. Amen.

"What Christmas means to me"

"What Christmas means to me"

Christmas make me think of...
People who collect shoe boxes for the poor...
And Jesus
It reminds me of a happy time for people to remember...
Of love and peace.

...I get to be with my whole family and have dinner with them...
I get to open my presents...
I have a lot of fun with my family.

I think about presents and Jesus' birthday...

love and caring
giving present and
the excitement of seeing relatives.

To me Christmas means Jesus' birthday and giving and receiving.
It represents love, care and presents.

Christmas gives me warmth, happiness, presents and Jesus.
It reminds me of meeting relatives and the colour red.

Christmas is a time to have fun and think of others who aren't as fortunate.
And think about Jesus' birthday.
Thank you for the associations which can help the less fortunate.

Christmas is a happy time for me,
For I'm a Christian, Can't you see?
It's a happy time for all my family
We remember Jesus' birthday
Having all the presents, giving all the presents
It's a happy time for me.
