1 December - Holly

I was not present at the birth of baby Jesus, yet
when people see me, they think of Christmas.

I am happy to be chosen to give you the feeling of
Christmas.

I am love and hope. My beautiful red berries speak
of love and my shiny green leaves give you hope.
You are delighted when you see me in the Winter
time, and I am happy to bring you the good news:
"Christ was born in Bethlehem".

For this Christmas time, I share with you the gifts
of Love and Hope. Keep them safe in your heart
and share them widely yourself.
