All over the world, Churches and fellowships are doing their best to show their passion and dedication toward the incoming day. Pioneer or Mega Church, members and non-members are gathering to share the feeling of joy and gladness of the birth of our beloved Jesus Christ. All over the globe, preparations after preparations are being set-up for this wonderful day. Days and nights of rehearsal of skits, recital, dramas, and performance are being held for the sake of giving love.

Gathering should not be an end an end to a means, but the beginning of recruitment for those who can accept the life of Christ as their devotion, and carry on the work of the gospel.
