Christmas is the time when Christians around the world
celebrate the birth of Jesus.
Jesus is the Reason for the Season , it is History!
Every year in December we celebrate the birthday of Jesus Christ.
That is why we call
this time of year Christmas - we celebrate the Mass , or church service, for Christ.
The word Christmas (or Christ s Mass) comes from the Old English name Cristes
Maesse - Christ s Mass - and is the celebration of the birth of Jesus.
The first recorded
observance occurred in Rome in AD360, but it wasn t until AD440 that the Christian
Church fixed a celebration date of December 25.
Christmas is a truly magical season, bringing families and friends together to share
the much loved customs and traditions which have been around for centuries.
Most
people are on holiday in England and stay at home with their family on Christmas day.
