Everytime, our family and relatives celebrate christmas. We talked and played with our cousins. Singing christmas songs.
But do we really know why we are celebrating christmas? It's the birth of christ and we should be praying with heart to him. Thanking him, not only asking him for things you want for your life or life of others.
Christmas is for Jesus. God whom we believe.

Christmas is the time we celebrate the birth of Jesus the Christ. Our family likes to go to the Christmas Eve service at our church. It's a very beautiful service.

I don't usually go to any church service during christmas. My family will be busy preparing food for the visitors like friends and relatives. We just pray for the food but i haven't heard any of my relatives prayed or thanked God or sing "Happy Birthday!" to God.
I don't know why people doesn't greet God during his birthday which is "Christmas".

Christmas is definitely about god, our faith and importance of family. My family will always go to church for chritmas prayers. Chritmas is to celebrate not only the birth of Christ but also it's a celebration for "Family". We will visit our parents' house and have family dinner and reunion. The children will look forward to chritmas as they know that this is the time that they will receive lots and lots of presents from their love ones.
We would also visit the grave of our loved ones and say a small prayer to them. Then, we will make an open house to welcome our friends from all walks of life regardless of their race and religion.
Though it is more than a month to for before we celebrate christmas, just would like to wish everyone "A HAPPY MEERY CHRISTMAS". Heh, it's lot too early to start the festive season.
Cheers.

Yes, very much. Christmas not represent the birth of Jesus Christ but also the family
of Jesus Christ. Look how happy his parents when Jesus was born. If you compare to it in out own family, Christian gathered to their on family to celebrate Christmas. It is a family event that God gave to us. When you think God and Jesus Christ in Christmas then you are thinking to your family also or vice versa.
