Christmas reminds us the spirit of love and giving. 

That was the message depicted by the play conducted by the Fogatuli, Savai’i Congregational Christian Church of Samoa Sunday school. 

They celebrated the birth of Jesus through skits, singing, dancing and plays by the Sunday school.

The theme was about love and giving.

The church is under the leadership of Reverend Apelu and Sieni Semu,  with Reverend Apelu reminding the congregation about the true reason for the season.

“The Bible in Acts 20:35 states that in everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: It is more blessed to give than to receive which teaches that there is joy in the act of giving when it is done with pure motives.” 

He reminded that giving to one another, makes you a blessing to others, while your blessing comes from above. 

“Give out of purity of your heart and don’t expect anything in return,” said Reverend Apelu.
