Christmas is celebrated to remember the birth of Jesus Christ, who is the Son of God. The name ‘Christmas’ comes from the Mass of Christ (or Jesus). Misa de Gallo, is a series of nine masses leading up on the eve 24th of December is a Catholic tradition commemorating the birth of Christ.
The festive season kicks off in September, marking the beginning of the “Ber” months (September, October, November, and December), and continues until January 6, culminating with the Feast of Epiphany.
Beyond religious customs, Filipinos are known for their love of festivities and community gatherings. Nearly every month, various regions and provinces host fiestas, where communities come together to share food, showcase vibrant costumes, and perform traditional dances in the streets.
Of all these celebrations, Christmas is especially significant in the Philippines, prompting an extension of the holiday season over a prolonged period. This extended celebration also boosts the economy, as consumer spending on decorations, gifts, and other festive items increases during this time.
Please enjoy the moment with your loved ones, decorating with Parols, enjoying Noche Buena, participating in caroling and gift-giving, and greeting each other a “Merry Christmas!”
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
