christmas

Good morning everyone!On behalf of our parish, I would like to welcome you all for this celebration. Last year, i had a great opportunity to come to this event and it was so inspiring and wonderful. yourchidren did a great job and our sisters deserve to be recognized for their wonderful dedication and amazing work. Year after year, they help your children to understand the real meaning of the birth of Christ with many spiritual activities.
Children you all know about the story of the three wise men who went to see the child Jesus in Bethlehem. They look with them gold, insense and perfume as their presence. And there is a story about a fourth person who was neither a king nor a wise man but a small boy. Since he was poor, he could not take with him neither gold nor any precious thing with him. When he reached Bethlehem, he came to know that the three kings already visited the child Jesus and offered him their gifts of gold and precious things and he with hesitation entered the manger and bowed before the Child and said, " God...I don't have anything to offer your Son Jesus but myself and then he prayed to God and went home and thirty years later when Jesus was walking along the sea of Galilee, he found that person. yes, he was Simon peter... who became the first disciple of Jesus.
Today what can we give Jesus as his birth day presece.... he doesn't want gold....incense or anything precious but he wants us. yes, the best gift that we can give to Jesus is ourselves. So let us give ourselves and pray that everyone will come to know Jesus who is full of love.
