Merry Christmas everybody in advance, I ‘m Stephen Chan Dak of the United States of America

Greeting: I would resembling to extend my personal thank you or salutation to formers friends in Christ in which I had serviced with them in church years ago or until nowadays. Unfortunately, I would not know most of their current church’s position, but I may try to grab some recent positions and previous if I may know. I would also show appreciation to those who I don’t stated their names for their hard work in Christ Jesus. Essentially, my thank you goes to every Christians around the World for the tremendous job they have done so far, and the recognition to God our creator. For instant, our intent is to work toward the internal life which it is now waiting on heaven. God Bless You!

Christmas proposal: Is it December? If yes, will it be Christmas also? I am pretty excited to give some advices to all Christians around the World. Ladies and gentlemen in Christ, Christmas time has approach and it is supposed to be a time of joy and celebration.  If you are still burdened with wickedness, your heart will not be light and full of good cheer.  Those annoying evils can become a burden that strips away the joy of the Christmas. As you can see, there are plenty of reasons to be cheerful for the Christmas. Things you may need to have or may happen on Christmas day: Evergreen boughs that fill our homes with perfumed Christmas scents. Our will be hearts filled with the loving burn that Christmas represents; little faces bright with joy, loved ones being merry; parties, songs, beribboned gifts, silver bells that tinkle, Christmas trees, colorful lights that twinkle and relatives waiting with open arms to smile and hug us. Again, when is Christmas? How many days have left? Twenty days ahead or behind, Does it matter to celebrate whatever time you feel as long it is still December? As Southern Sudanese in particular, we start to act or prepare for Christmas at the beginning of November, how about now? Could we start it too, by practicing Christmas songs and New Year as well? To make it a point, if you wish to sing a best song for Christmas or New Year, contact me as soon as possible and in the God’s name you will be given the song you needed for that particular day, but it has been a while for me to teach or write songs as we know how it is like to leaving in Western World. God Bless You!

Christmas symbol/interpretation: Christmas is a relatively rare surname, which is sometimes said to have been a byname given to a person born at Christmas. However, others dispute this interpretation. The byname was spelled Cristesmesse in 1185 and 1191, and Cristesmesse in 1308. Christmas, also referred to as Christmas Day, is an annual holiday celebrated on December 25 that commemorates the birth of Jesus of Nazareth and the period extending from December 24 to January 6. Based on bible historical that I have read, I found interested data that I want to share with you as Christians. I will start with two different terms that I want to make known to you, and these are Christmas and Epiphany in a way Christian relies on. January 6 is known in western Christian tradition as Epiphany. It goes by other names in various church traditions. In another culture, for example; Hispanic and Latin as well as some places in Europe, it is known as Three Kings' Day. Because of differences in church calendars, mostly between the Eastern Orthodox and the western Catholic and Protestant traditions, both Christmas and Epiphany have been observed at different times in the past. Epiphany is the climax of the Christmas Season and the Twelve Days of Christmas, which are counted from December 25th until January 5th. The day before Epiphany is the twelfth day of Christmas, and is sometimes called Twelfth Night, an occasion for feasting in some cultures. The term epiphany means to show or to make something known. In Western churches, it remembers the coming of the wise men bringing gifts to visit the Christ child, who by so doing tell Jesus to the world. God Bless You!
