The "Holy Supper" on December 24 is a special meal that many Christian families have on Christmas Eve, the night before Christmas. It's a time when families come together to eat, share stories, and remember the birth of Jesus, which is the reason for celebrating Christmas. People might eat traditional foods, sing songs, and pray. It's a moment to feel thankful and happy, sharing love and kindness with family and friends. This gathering helps everyone remember the spirit of Christmas, which is about peace, love, and being together.
How to celebrate Holy Supper?
Start by setting the table with a nice cloth and special plates. Light a candle to make the mood cozy. Gather your family and say a simple prayer to thank for the food and your loved ones. Share a meal that everyone enjoys. After eating, take turns reading a Christmas story or sing a carol together. Spend some time talking and sharing what you're thankful for. If you have any family traditions, like giving small gifts or playing games, enjoy those too. Before bed, reflect on the day and feel grateful for the moments shared with your family.
