Christmas is special because... and predictions for the future
My Christmas Wish
On Christmas Day 1 heard a strange
sound in the middle of the night. I said to
myself Santa? No, it's too early in the
morning,
Will, I heard a. sound. Do you think it's
Santa? Maybe hes stuck in the chimney
and the fire is still going.,
• The next thing I knew mom was down-
stairs helping Santa out. I ran downstairs
but Santa was gone.

My Christmas Wish
On Christmas morning I leaped out of
my ped because I heard a noise. I thought
to Myself Santa, not a burglar.. So. I went
down the hall and it was a burglar. He was
stealing our presents. I went and woke up
Mom and. Dad.
Dad phoned the police. They came and
got the burglar. We opened our, presents
then. My sister got a Ghetto Blaster and I
got a motor bike. .Mom got a watch. Dad
got some after shave.
The burglar got eight years in jail.

Christmas at our house Is Special because. -
Every year my family celebrates Christ-
mas. We give gifts and hang up decora-
tions. We also set up tire Christmas tree.
I bet that is the reason Christmas is
special for many people. The reason why
Christmas is special to us is because that is
• the day we celebrate the birth .of Jesus
( Christ
•Christmas isn't the only day 1 can
• celebrate the specialties of Jesusbirth. I
can do that all year round. I am thankful for
that. ,
My whole family can be together playing
games and having fun. We have & candle
light dinner with crackers, nuts, grapes,.
.cheese, oranges and a whole lot more.
Christmas is special at our house. I wish
it would be Christmas everyday.

The Greatest Gift 1 Could. Give
My greatest gift is love. I think love is
the greatest gift pecause everybody has, to
feel loved.. If you don't feel loved then you
aren't happy. •
The way to give love is by showing you
care and love that person. You can also
"Silent night, Holy night..."
May all things beautiful be
yours this happy holiday!

show love by listening to what people are
saying. At Christmas my family is happy
because. everybody is .loved. That makes
for a happy Christmas.
• We are happy because there is no yelling
or fighting.
• If there are people who just moved in to
•the neighbourhood, show a little love by
becoming their friends. If you love people
they will love you.
So the next time you see a sad and lonely
person show them that you love and care
for them.

Projections and Predictions for the Future
I hope in thefuture there will be less
drug addiction, less shows with violence,
and that people will be able to help
countries before they get- to the point
where people starve. •
• I would like more people to take notice of
•the starving people. We won't know what
its like to starve because we have food all
• the time. It's always on the table. We
• might send money away to a country that
• is starving but it's sent with little thought.
We have to think about it more.
• I would like less shows with violence be-
cause it's teaching kids the wrong way to
live. If someone bugs you you're not
supposed to knock them out, You could just
simply ignore them. Or in hockey, in .the
• NHL, you see fighting. Then you start
seeing little kids trying to be like their
hero. They start fighting too. But it dos no
good to- fight.
But the things that this world needs is
more love and more caring for each other.
Even our most hated enemies. If we all
loved and cared for each,other we would be
able to solve the problems together.

M• y Christmas Wish
• I wish I could go with Santa in his sled on
Christmas night. It would be lots of fan.
We would see, lots of, things. It would be
fun sliding down .the chimney.
• What a fast sleigh ride it would be! I
wonder if Santa would let me drive the
sleigh. I hope my Christmas wish comes
true. •

The Saviour Came
Into`the world the Saviour came
To a world who received Him not• healed their sick and raised theiiL dead •
And the world so soon forgot.
• Into the world the Saviour came
No wealth, no honor, no fame
• His life He gave that we might live
Come ---let us magnify His Name.
Into the world the Saviour came
His birthday is so often forgot—
So while you buy your gifts this year
Why not put His Name at the top?
Into the world the Saviour came
As a babe He came that day—
But He's coming again as our King
Oh, Wonderful, Glorious day.
