The Forgotten Christmas
In a small village,
Dirina, the people didn’t believe in Santa Claus and in Christmas.
They didn’t put up
the Christmas tree and they didn’t exchange presents with their family and
friends.
But there was a boy,
Peter, who believed in Christmas. He was a friend of … Santa Claus. Peter
talked to his family but they didn’t believe him. He was heart-broken.
On the 24th of
December, Peter talked with Santa Claus told him that nobody believed in him,
in Peter’s village. Santa Claus promised he was going to visit the village.
Later… when he appeared in Dirina, everyone believed
in him and the Christmas spirit was alive again.

Christmas Spirit
There was once a
family that was very rich. And there was a poor boy who wanted to be part of
this nice family on Christmas Eve. He didn’t have a family of his own to be
with. But the rich family said “no” and closed the door in the poor boy’s face.
Two years later the
rich family had some money problems and became poor. And ironically the poor
boy was now a rich man.
The sad family asked
the rich man if they could stay at his house to celebrate Christmas Eve. And
the man said “yes”, because he was a good person and believed in the true
Christmas Spirit!

A Guardian Angel
A boy and his parents
lived up in the mountains, in Canada. In Canada it snows a lot and it’s very
cold, especially in the mountains.
One day the boy became
sick because of the terrible cold and the family tried to find a hospital. But
they lived so far away from everything that only with a lot of luck would they
find the hospital.
Two days later, the
boy condition was between life and death and they still hadn’t reached a
hospital.
But the mother
remembered, when she was a little girl, her grandmother told her, “our family
has got a guardian angel and he protects our family”.
So the mother asked
the angel to save her son. And believe it or not, the family immediately found
the hospital.
The boy is alive and
healthy because of the angel’s protection!

Lost
A family has got two
children. This family was very happy. But one day the children didn’t come
home. The parents were very sad and couldn’t sleep.
The children were
very small and they soon disappeared in the middle of the forest. The children
found a house with a lot of lights. They knocked on the door and a man with a
long beard opened the door. His name was Santa Claus.
The children entered,
and in the house they saw a lot of presents. The house was very warm and they
became comfortable there.
Then Santa Claus
asked them why they were in the forest all alone. They explained that they were
lost.
Santa Claus said “I
will take you home!” The two children smiled and said “thanks!”
This family lived
happily together for the rest of their lives!

A Special Christmas Night
On Christmas Eve you couldn’t find
anyone on the streets. The people were in their houses with their families.
But, unfortunately, there was an old man sitting alone, feeling very cold and
hungry in the street. He didn’t have a family, he didn’t have friends, he was
alone in the world on Christmas Eve.
Suddenly, he saw a person with food
and a cloak for him. The man said, “thank you”, and felt very happy.
It’s so great to know there are good
persons in the world. This person had a big heart and helped people who didn’t
have a family.
