為何會聖誕快樂？
因為這是一個紀念公義、和平、自由、尊重生命、幫助弱者的價值觀的誕生的故事。人類雖然一直都會犯錯，但都被這些價值引領著嘗試前行，’’聖誕快樂‘’正是因為這種愛而來，亦要延續這種愛。
快樂不是必然，世上有很多不幸，沒人知何時會遇上甚麼事情，唯有以愛人如己的心，多為別人設想、隨時準備好互相幫助、分憂，就會少些不幸，多些人分享到溫暖。
Why do we say “Merry Christmas”?
Because it is a story that celebrates the birth of values — justice, peace, freedom, respect for life, and care for the vulnerable. Humanity may stumble, yet these ideals continue to guide us forward. “Merry Christmas” springs from this spirit of love, and it is also a reminder to carry that love onward.
Joy is never guaranteed. Misfortune exists everywhere, and no one knows what may happen at any moment. Only by loving others as ourselves, thinking more for others, being ready to help and share burdens at any time, can misfortune be lessened and more people experience warmth.
