A CHRISTMAS STORY
by Martinus
The basic principle of Christmas is to light a candle in the darkness
Since we have now again reached that time of year when the Christmas lights begin to glow around us, as they have already long been doing in the shops and soon will also do in homes all over the Christian world, I would like to talk today about the Christmas tree.
The principle of spiral cycles What then is a cycle? It is a period of time within which living beings experience the four existing basic principles of the manifestation of life: spring, summer, autumn and winter. These principles are in turn respectively the same as evolution, culmination, degeneration and the latent state. Nothing in the world can exist without representing one or other of these four principles. Every single thing finds itself either in the stage of evolution and thus represents spring, or it is at its culmination and thus represents summer, or it is degenerating and represents autumn, if it does not appear in an apparently lifeless state, the latent state of life that we call winter. If we imagine a twenty-four hour-period, of which today's daytime is a part, we can see that it is also a cycle within which the same principles hold true. This moment is a part of the day's "spring", but in our language we do not express it in this way; we say that it is "morning". However, we know that the sun is at its highest in the sky at 12 noon, at which point in time the day manifests its principle of summer which we call "noon". In this way the afternoon becomes the day's "autumn", and night the day's "winter".

An Enchanting Children's Story:
The Christmas Dance
Joanne Keating
It all happened one deep, dark night in the dead of winter when snow lay on the ground and the moon shone crisp and clear on bare branches. That was the night the Sugar Plum Fairies forgot how to dance. The Sugar Plum Fairies had been dancing in children's Christmas dreams for hundreds of years. They had been together so long their dance was nearly perfect. Each fairy had her own special part, meant only for her. And, that is where the trouble began. Priscilla Pink, a sometimes naughty little fairy, was probably the one who started it, but no one really knows for sure. All anyone can remember is that Prissy (that is what the others called her) began to dance Penelope Plum's part. Penny (that was her nickname) was quite understandably upset. Penny, who was always polite, wondered aloud, "Prissy, why are you trying my special part?

Christmas Poem - "Twas the Night before Christmas" The Christmas Story .
T he reading of this Christmas story is a Christmas eve tradition.
A Visit from St Nicholas.
by Clement C. Moore. 'T was the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads; And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap, Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap, When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter. Away to the window I flew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

Nutcrackers and The Nutcracker Story.
Select products search to view our Web Catalog index.
Finding tools for opening or removing the shells of nuts challenged our earliest ancestors. Ancient excavations exposed nutshell fragments and it is thought those nuts were broken by stones. Later tools were made specifically for the task of cracking the hard shells of nuts.
The earliest nutcrackers were simple and functional, but eventually, beautifully crafted brass and even carved characters emerged as an art form in the 15th and 16th centuries. Many carved characters took on the image of birds, animals and human forms. When a nut was placed in the "mouth" of dolls, levers or screws on the back could be worked to push the lower jaw up against the upper jaw to crush the nut. The nutcracker story began with the creation of European nutcrackers in Switzerland, France, Germany, and England during the 16th and 17th centuries. The combination of a useful tool and a figural form with a human appearance was well accepted by the mid-18th century. In the toy making center of Sonneberg in the Thuringian Forest there was a reference mentioned in 1735 of "nut-biters" that operated according to the principles of leverage. These nut-biters were described as sturdy, energetic forms with large heads and two moving arms. The body holds a long handled lower jaw that allows the jaw to push the nut against the upper jaw to crack it. In a carnival parade in 1783, students from Freisingen, Germany presented large models of Berchtesgaden wares, including a nut-biter in the form of a little man whose mouth and stomach were one and the same.

Rudolph came to life in 1939 when the Chicago-based Montgomery Ward company (operators of a chain of department stores) asked one of their copywriters, 34-year-old Robert L. May, to come up with a Christmas story they could give away to shoppers as a promotional gimmick. (The Montgomery Ward stores had been buying and giving away coloring books for Christmas every year, and May's department head saw creating a giveaway booklet of their own as a way to save money.) May, who had a penchant for writing children's stories and limericks, was tapped to create the booklet.

The Timeless Christmas Story
By Claudia Goodman How remarkable it is that as stories have come and gone through the centuries, the Christmas story has only grown brighter and more beloved with each retelling.  It’s a story celebrated a myriad ways, joyfully recounted for each rising generation. Celebrating the story that never grows old. Like most of you, some of my fondest childhood memories revolve around the Christmas story.  Enacting the nativity has always been my favorite tradition.  After I was married, my husband and I eagerly staged our own nativity pageant, as our family gradually grew large enough to cover all the parts.  One year as we began rehearsing the pageant, I felt ten-year-old LeAnne’s gentle arms around my waist.  I looked down into her tender brown eyes as she said quietly, “Mom, can I please be Mary?  I haven’t gotten to for a few years, and this is the very last time I’ll ever get to be her in my whole life.  Please.”

AUSTRIA
"Frohliche Weihnachton"
Christmas is undoubtedly the most important holiday in Austria. As in other European nations, December 6th is the day Saint Nicholas, the giver of gifts, makes his rounds. Arrayed in a glittering Bishops robe and accompanied by his devilish assistant, Knecht Rupnecht, he can occasionally be seen roaming the streets giving sweets and apples to good children while his companion playfully beckons "little sinners" to feel the string of his golden rod. On December 24th, when the city is frantic with last minute shoppers, the countryside is a refuge for quiet traditions. Farmers chalk the initials of the Three Wise Men on the archway of the stable door; C for Caspar, M for Melchoir, and B for Balthazar, to protect the heard from sickness in the coming year. Christmas trees are lit on this day and in many villages "shelter-seekers" plod through deep snow from farm to farm re-enacting the plight of Mary and Joseph as they sought shelter on the eve of Christ's birth. In the snow-covered Alps, families descend from their mountain homes to the valley below, illuminating the night with torches held high to light their way in the darkness. Carolers gather in church towers and village squares to guide the people to Christmas services with their melodies. All shops, theaters and concert halls close their doors for this is an evening spent with only with family.

Alane Ferguson NOTHING WILL ENGAGE YOU LIKE A MURDER:
Young-adult mystery author Alane Ferguson
By Donna Freedman After Alane Ferguson's best friend was killed, she was asked for details on Savannah's life. The police told Ferguson not to hold back, because any information she could offer might shed some light on her friend's death, and might help them convict the killer. As the tape recorder spun, Ferguson began to realize that the authorities already had their own pet theory: that Savannah had been two-timing her fiance, and he killed her in a jealous rage. Their theory was so wrong as to be laughable, and allowed the real killer - the security guard at Savannah's building - to walk free for almost five years. That murder and its aftermath reverberate in the pages of " Show Me The Evidence ," her Edgar Award-winning young adult mystery. Its teenage protagonist, Lauren, struggles fiercely in the face of police skepticism to clear a friend's good name. Ferguson concedes that today's young readers are pretty jaded about the justice system, bombarded as they by Court TV and shows like "Hard Copy." Yet she trusts them to know what's fair and what's right. "They still want to have an ordered world, although intellectually they know better," says the author. "If I wrote a story where the killer got away, they'd be furious." Although she broke into the business with a picture book That New Pet!

The Old Christmas Stories THE FIRST CHRISTMAS TREE, CANDLES IN THE WINDOW AND MISTLETOE Do you remember, when I told you about the small flock of birds that were roosting in the tree, outside of the barn, in the story of the "First Christmas Gift?"
The children's children of those same birds are in this next story. It started about 400 years later, way north in the Burzee forest, in winter. The Burzee is the same enchanted forest where Santa Claus grew up and became "Father Christmas."
The descendants of the same flock of birds were trying to fly south. The weather had been nice, and the flock had delayed leaving for the warm south. Now, they were caught in a nasty, cold, winter storm. The gusting wind buffeted the birds. When the flock of birds tried to land on branches of a tree the wind would sweep them off. The little birds were exhausted. The dense snow, swirling and falling, made flying even more difficult. The birds landed and were swept off several trees.
At dusk, the exhausted little birds, one last time, tried to land. Feebly, they fell into a large Spruce tree, deep in the forest, in front of a small log cabin. The Spruce tree quickly fluffed and curled up it's outer branches and stopped the wind. The spruce tree protected the little flock of birds and they fell asleep. Later that night, after the storm passed, everything was quiet and the full moon highlighted the blanket of white snow that covered the forest.

A blue norther blew through the cracks in the door; the rain would soon end the drought.
He left her early that morning to search for that black baldy cow,
That cow always had trouble calving; he must sell her someday, somehow.
His wife, she would not worry until sunset as the wind still blew up the draw.
It would not warm the entire day and the water in the trough wouldn't thaw.
She'd be up all night waiting for him while the lamp flickered and the wind blew cold.
She'd lay the Bible on the rickety old table to again read the story of old.
They had always read it together, the story of the first Christmas Eve,
But tonight she would read it without him, as she tried very hard not to grieve. Then the creak of his saddle awoke her, as he put the stray cow in the pen. She raised her head from the Bible and wondered where in the world he'd been.

Catholic Traditions for Advent and Christmas MICHAELANN MARTIN How can families better live the spirit of Advent and Christmas in their homes? Issue How can families better live the spirit of Advent and Christmas in their homes?
Response [w]hen the Church celebrates the liturgy of Advent By participating in various time-honored traditions, such as making Jesse trees or putting on a Christmas play at home, Catholic families can engage more fruitfully in the seasons of Advent and Christmas. Discussion: Advent and Christmas in a Catholic Home These are hopeful thoughts as we prepare to incorporate some of these liturgical activities into our home life during Advent to enable us to truly celebrate Christmas. It is a shame that many do not fast during Advent, because without a fast there can really be no feast at Christmas. Fasting and other forms of penance, such as prayer and almsgiving, help to purify our hearts and prepare us for the celebration of Christmas (cf. Catechism, no. 1434). The Church especially encourages participation at weekday Masses during Advent, because in the Eucharist we find the source and goal of our Advent preparation: Christ Himself, whose sacrifice reconciles us with God (cf. Catechism, no. 1436; Sacred Congregation of Rites, Eucharisticum Mysterium , no. 29).

The best Christmas present in the world
A short story by the children's laureate, Michael Morpurgo
Tuesday December 23, 2003 The Guardian I spotted it in a junk shop in Bridport, a roll-top desk. The man said it was early 19th century, and oak. I had always wanted one, but they were always far too expensive. This one was in bad condition, the roll-top in several pieces, one leg clumsily mended, scorch marks all down one side. It was going for very little money, and I reckoned I was just about capable enough to have a go at restoring it. It would be a risk, a challenge, but I had to have it. I paid the man and brought it back to my workroom at the back of the garage. I began work on it on Christmas Eve, mostly because the house was resonating with overexcited relatives and I wanted some peace and quiet.

The True Meaning of C h r i s t m a s

This is a wonderful story of a Christmas Eve dream of Santa as he is known today and Jesus who is the Reason for the Season we celebrate each year.
By the use of carefully chosen symbols in the dream a wonderful picture emerges which points us not to Santa who is himself a fantasy but to Jesus, the promised one, the saviour of the world.
The True Meaning of C h r i s t m a s Late one Christmas Eve I sank back, tired but content, into my easy chair. The kids were in bed, the gifts were wrapped, the milk and cookies waited by the fireplace for Santa. As I sat back admiring the tree with its decorations, I couldn't help feeling that something was missing. It wasn't long before the tiny twinkling tree lights lulled me to sleep. I don't know how long I slept, but all of a sudden I knew that I wasn't alone.
I opened my eyes, and you can imagine my surprise when I saw Santa Claus

The Port Townsend Christmas Story by Otto Smith and Friends
Port Townsend, WA This play is community specific, so you would have to adapt it, but the outline is wonderful. Narrator: Nobody knows if the Christmas story really happened. The story written in the Bible happened around 2000 years ago. The people who wrote it down were not there when it happened. The story was already over a hundred years old when it was recorded. There are many other traditional non-Bible stories that are told about Christmas time. There are stories about animals that talk, angels and miraculous happenings. Maybe you have heard some of these, like the story of the friendly beasts who have the power of human speech on Christmas Eve, or the very recent stories of The Gift of the Magi, Amahl and the Night Visitors or the Nutcracker. There are stories about Santa Claus, St Nicholas, Rudolf, Frosty, the Grinch, and even Charlie Brown and his ugly Christmas tree. The story told in the Bible is about a poor family and a birth. Tonight we will retell this story in a modern setting. In the Bible it says that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed and every man should go to his own city to be counted. In the Bible story Joseph and Mary set out to travel to Bethlehem. Joseph: I was just told that Caesar says we have to go back home to be counted. Why can't those Romans just leave us poor folk alone.
