One of the warmest and sincere holidays in our country - it's Christmas. And Christmas, like Easter - the greatest Christian holiday. People in this day celebrate the birth of the Savior, Jesus Christ.

The history of this holiday dates next. More than two thousand years ago the Earth came the Son of God. He came into the world come as ordinary people: a tiny baby. A little boy he was lying in a manger. Even animals, donkeys and oxen greeted his arrival. Earthly parents of Jesus Mary and Joseph the Carpenter very happy. But they knew that their son will be then severely suffer and die for our sins.

To honor Christ, who by his death saved mankind, Christians annually celebrate his birth. On Christmas Eve, people gather at the Christmas tree at the table with festive kutey. Catholics make this evening of the twenty-fifth of December, and the Orthodox, Greek Catholics and some Protestants - the evening of the sixth of January.

Christmas for us - it is a family holiday. On this day, in the morning go to church on vigil. And visit relatives, honor their dead ancestors, remember godparents and carry them kutyu. And young people and children go caroling and play den, ie traditional Christmas show.

In den play colorful characters dressed in bright outfits. This horned goat, witty Roma cheerful grandfather, bear, a doctor who treats a goat, and others. Youth wishes all around with the birth of the Savior and glorify him. I once did not forget this holiday.
