MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR 2016

Christmas celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ, who Christians believe is the son of God. His birth date is unknown because there is little information about his early life. There is disagreement among scholars on when Jesus was born. Christians celebrate Jesus' birthday on December 25. Orthodox Christians celebrate Christmas Day on or near January 7.
