Jesus were Melchior Balthazar Gaspar #8 The gifts that were given to Jesus from
the wise men were Gold Frankincense Myrrh # 12 The True Meaning of Christmas To
me the true meaning of Christmas is simply not all about receiving gifts. It’s a
time of the year when it’s Jesus’ turn to be recognized. Christmas is Jesus’
birthday, and this is the time where we should praise him and thank him for
giving up his life for us. It is true that we should always thank him but we
should really adore him at Christmas. Christmas is a time we should spend with
our family and friends, for they are the people we care about most. Also
everyone should attend mass to honor Jesus on this very special day. So when you
think about Christmas don’t think about what you are going to get but think
about what you are going to give.
#15 The Christmas traditions we have in my family are decorating our
Christmas tree as a family. Every year we buy our tree a week before Christmas,
and we decorate it when it falls. We do this as a family. I think there is no
meaning behind decorating a Christmas tree with out the whole household family.
Every year we also have a tradition of going to visit my grandparents at their
house, and that’s where we eat Christmas dinner. When we go down my
grandparent’s house its not just my household family down there it’s the whole
entire family to celebrate together. I think even when I have my own family I
will always continue these traditions because they bring back memories of all
the good times I have had with my family. #16 Dear journal, I’m writing today to
speak on behalf of the situation of Joseph and my child that is soon to be born.
I think this is the best gift a person could ever receive. Even though I ‘m a
virgin this still allows me to have a beautiful child. I think this is the most
blessed miracle God has ever performed.
T first I must admit I was shocked that I was chosen to be the mother of
Jesus but, now I ‘m so grateful. Sincerely, Mary #13 Christmas Christmas is a
time for giving…not for receiving. Christmas is a time for sharing… not for
selfishness Christmas is a time for prayer…not for play Christmas is a time for
Jesus’ birth… not for getting presents Christmas is a time for going to mass…not
for making excuses Christmas is a time for love …not for hatred Christmas is a
time for everyone to share with the ones you love and respect. Everyone who
seems just a little nicer during the Christmas season should learn from that
change and keep it. Start the New Year a whole different way that you ended.
Love one another, as you would like to be loved! #10 Summary of the life of
saint Nicholas The legend of Santa clause began with a real person. Saint
Nicholas, who lived many centuries ago.
He is one of the most popular saints honored by Christians. He lived during
the 4th century in lycia. There is not much known about him. Some stories say he
was born in patara and traveled to Egypt and Palestine as a young man. After a
while he became bishop of the church at mayra. By the 6th century his burial
shrine was well known at myra. In 1087 his remains were moved to bari, Italy
which became a crowed pilgrimage center in his honor. Worship of him spread
throughout the Christian world and he was chosen as the patron saint of Russia
and Greece. There are now thousands of churches throughout Europe that have been
named after him. His feast day was set on December 6th. The whole transformation
of Saint Nick into the person known as Santa clause began in Germany.
