The Philippines – it is well known – is a country of festivities. The celebration of Christmas begins in September. That is why these Chronicles would like to share with you our ways of celebrating Jesus’ birth. It is a way to be in communion with you these days of festivities and of joy.
Very cordially yours,
Bernard Holzer, A.A.

Dear Baby Jesus;
I thank you so much for coming into my life. I am thankful that I will be full of joy, because of your birth. I have prepared a warm manger for you in the depths of my heart. You are my whole life. Please continue to be with me, throughout the rest of my journey.
Baby Jesus, I love you!
(A prayer from Chinese Seminarian Joseph – Martin Yen)
