THE TRUE MEANING
OF CHRISTMAS
"I want that Star Wars
set!" (cry, cry)
"I want a baby -that -a-
way!" (sniffle, sniffle)
"Certainly my little
darlings."
And off the shelf they
come but that isn't `the
true meaning of
Christmas. The true
meaning is Jesus in
Bethlehem, when people
shared, if they had it.
Jesus was born in a
manger, Joseph and
Mary were his mom and
dad and the shepards
gave him sheep, the
wisemen gave him gold,
frankencense and Myrrh.
That is the true.
meaning of christmas -
around the world.

THE TRUE MEANING
OF CHRISTMAS
Do youknow the real
meaning df Christmas?
It's not Santa Claus. It's
the birth of Christ. Christ
was born on Christmas
Day in Bethlehem in the
stable in a manger. He
was born to be our savior.
So just forget about Santa
for a minute. Remember
Christ our Lord.

THE REAL MEANING
OF CHRISTMAS
AROUND THE WORLD
The rening of
Christmas iiswhwh n Christ
was born. He was born in
a manger. He was born
because God wanted
someone to rule over the
world. When he was born
a star came to guide the
shepherds to the stable.
They gave gifts to him.
They gave ,gifts because
Christ was the son of God.
When he was born he was
put in a little crib full of
hay. The star shone on
• Christ That is the real
meaning of Christmas
around the world.

TRUE MEANING OF
CHRISTMAS AROUND
THE WORLD
The true meaning off
Christmas is not
decorating a' Christmas
tree or putting decoration
all through the house. The
true meaning of
Christmas is loving
everybody, caring for
what happens to .them
and making sure they
think well of the world
and the people that live in
it - just not themselves, as
well as going to church on
that glorious day that
Christ was born.

Or the other things that

like those of long ago.
