据基督教徒的圣书《圣经》记载，上帝决定让他的独 生子耶稣基督投生人间，找个母亲，然后就在人间生 活，以便人们能更好地了解上帝、学习热爱上帝和更 好地相互热爱。“圣诞节”的意思是“庆祝基督”， 庆祝一个年轻的犹太妇女玛丽娅生下耶稣的时刻。
《圣经》记载，玛丽娅和木匠约瑟夫订了婚。可是，
在他们同居之前，约瑟夫发现玛丽娅已怀孕。因为约 瑟夫是个正派的人，又不想把这件事说出去让她丢脸， 所以他想悄悄地和她分手。他正在考虑这事时，上帝 的天使出现在他的梦中，对他说，“不要嘀咕了，把 玛丽娅娶回家。她怀的孩子来自圣灵。她将生下个男 孩子，你们给孩子起名叫耶稣，因为他将从罪恶中拯 救人们。
神更派遣使者加伯列在梦中晓谕约瑟，叫他不要
因为马利亚未婚怀孕而不要她，反而要与她成亲， 把那孩子起名为“耶稣”，意思是要他把百姓从 罪恶中救出來。

当马利亚快要临盆的时候，罗马政府下了命 令，全部人民到伯利恒务必申报户籍。约瑟和马 利亚只好遵命。他们到达伯利恒时，天色已昏， 无奈两人未能找到旅馆渡宿，只有一个马棚可以 暫住。就在這时，耶稣要出生了！於是马利亚唯 有在马槽上，生下耶稣。后人为纪念耶稣的诞生， 便定十二月二十五为圣诞节，年年望彌撒，纪念 耶稣的出世。 圣诞节便是於十二月二十五日纪念耶稣的诞 生，但真实的诞生日就沒有人知道了。
自从12月25日被大多数教会公认为圣诞节后， 天主教会又把1月6日定为“三王来朝节”，以纪念 耶稣生时东方三王（即三位博士）来朝拜的故事。 随着基督教的广泛传播，圣诞节已成为各教派基督 徒，甚至广大非基督徒群众的一个重要节日。在欧 美许多国家里，人们非常重视这个节日，把它和新 年连在一起，而庆祝活动之热闹与隆重大大超过了 新年，成为一个全民的节日。十九世紀，圣诞卡的 流行、圣诞老人的出现，圣诞节也开始流行起來了。 公元354 年，在“菲洛卡连”日历中第一次写 明12月25日是耶稣的生日，到5世纪西方普遍接受 了这个日期为圣诞节。

圣 诞 节（Christmas Day)
Origin of Christmas
圣诞节的由来：圣诞节是西方的重大节日，
圣诞节主要是为了纪念圣主耶稣，是西方人 们非常喜爱的日子，在圣诞节前人们会进行 很多的准备，等到圣诞节的那天就像中国的 春节一样热闹，近年来圣诞节在中国以及东 方也成为一种时尚。其他还有一些圣诞节的 由来，比较站住脚的说法是为了纪念圣主耶 稣，之二就是在“阿姆斯特丹”吃“剩 蛋”· · · 圣诞节的由来：12月25日的圣诞节是庆祝基 督教创始人耶稣基督生日的日子，是西方国 家最大、人们最喜爱的节日。
报佳音
圣诞夜指12月24日晚至25日晨。教会组织一些圣 诗班（或由信徒自发地组成）挨门挨户地在门口 或窗下唱圣诞颂歌，叫作“报佳音”，意思是再 现当年天使向伯利恒郊外的牧羊人报告耶稣降生 的喜讯。“报佳音”的人称为ChristmasWaits，这 项活动往往要进行到天亮，人数越来越多，歌声 越来越大，大街小巷满城尽是歌声。
Festival Culture of English and American
Special Days in Britain and USA ： 1月1日 2月14日 4月1日 春分圆月后的第一个星期日 5月1日（英） 9月第一个星期一（美） mother's day 5月第二个星期日 father's day 6月的第三个星期日 Halloween 10月31日 thanksgiving day 11月的第四个星期四 christmas 12月25日
尽管耶稣的确切生日并不清楚，大约是在2000年前，
但是日历按着假定日期把时间分为公元前（耶稣基 督诞生前）和公元后。在公元后的头三百年间，耶 稣的生日是在不同的日子庆祝的。最后，在公元 354年，教堂的领导人把12月25日定为耶稣基督的 生日。 “圣诞节”这个名称是“基督彌撒”的缩写。 彌撒是教会的一种礼拜仪式。耶诞节是一个宗教节。 我们把它当作耶稣的诞辰來庆祝，因而又名耶诞节。 这一天，世界所有的基督教会都举行特別的礼拜仪 式。但是有很多圣诞节的欢庆活动和宗教并无半点 关联。交换礼物，寄圣诞卡，这都使圣诞节成为一 个普天同庆的日子。

Easter customs
Easter is a time of springtime festivals. In
