Extending heartiest greetings and best wishes to the people of the State, the Governor said, Christmas is celebrated to renew the bonds of love, tolerance and compassion which Jesus has taught the world.. What can we offer and give to God in return?
Christmas is a wonderful commemoration of the Messiah’s birth and the exclamation of the angels as they announced the arrival of the focal point of all history!
