    It is a great news that the birth
    of JESUS celebrated by the whole community. He is the Lord of all,
    came to the world, died for the
    sins of whole mankind. Nobody has
    an exclusive right for celebrating the
    birth of JESUS He belongs to all,
    so it must be done likewise.
    MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL.
