I know it’s a little early to start talking about Christmas, but in the Western world, Christmas started in July(!)

If you could some up what Christmas means to you, to your family,to your friends, in ten words or less, what would they be?
For me it’s “Chop up vegetables, now chop up radio! Hate these songs!”
 
Mass for Sunday, Mass for Christmas. No twofers this year.

Music, music, music…5 choirs…7 Masses.
Glorious Music.
 
Christmas for me mean a lot of work. I cook the family meal for about 30. Then I do all the clean up. We also have folks over on Christmas Eve and I cook & clean for them. Drinking wine helps 😉

What I would like Christmas to mean for me, Midnight Mass, Christmas Day Mass and keeping the focus on what it all really means. I would love to read the nativity from Luke. I would love it not to be about presents and stuff.

My ideal Christmas would to go on a retreat at a monastery or convent and just worship Jesus.
 
Christmas is the birth of our Lord Jesus.
It means preparing over Advent.
Midnight mass is a must.
Then it is all about family and getting together.

I dislike the commercialism of Christmas, other than that it is all good.

I Enjoy doing the Advent Wreath and my Mangers with travelling statues ( Wisemen travelling, Mary and Joseph going to Bethlehem ).
After Dec 15, all the baking and Tree decorations.
