With all the hype and pressure around the season, it’s easy to forget that Christmas is in fact a faith-based celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ and a time to come together Baptist Anglican in worship. Churches across the city are recognising Christmas and what it means for Christians in a number of ways, often with music at the centre. Most churches offer Carol Services encouraging us all to raise our voices in the seasonal songs we remember from our childhood, as well as concerts, talks and recitals. It is a time when churches and faith-based organisations remind us of how fortunate we are and that it is possible to give gifts of hope that will make a true difference at this time of year. Christmas is, after all, about giving nor receiving. So why not take a moment away wrapping the expensive electronics to reflect on the true meaning of the season and call into your nearest church – all are always welcome, regardless of their faith, and especially so at Christmas.
