About the application:

Christmas is an annual festival commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ,[8][9] observed primarily on December 25[4][10][11] as a religious and cultural celebration among billions of people around the world.[2][12][13] A feast central to the Christian liturgical year, it is preceded by the season of Advent or the Nativity Quick and initiates the season of Christmastide, which historically in the West lasts twelve days and culminates on Twelfth Night;[14] in some traditions, Christmastide contains an octave.[15] Christmas Day is a public holiday in a lot of of the world's nations,[16][17][18] is celebrated religiously by a majority of Christians,[19] as well as culturally by a lot of non-Christians,[1][20] and forms an integral part of the holiday season centered around it. The traditional Christmas narrative, the Nativity of Jesus, delineated in the Fresh Testament says that Jesus was born in Bethlehem, in accordance with messianic prophecies.[21] When Joseph and Mary arrived in the town, the inn had no room and so they were offered a stable where the Christ Kid was soon born, with angels proclaiming this news to shepherds who then further disseminated the information.[22] Although the month and date of Jesus' birth are unknown, by the early-to-mid fourth century the Western Christian Church had placed Christmas on December 25,[23] a date that was later adopted in the East.[24][25] Today, most Christians celebrate on December 25 in the Gregorian calendar, which has been adopted almost universally in the civil calendars used in countries throughout the globe. However, some Eastern Christian Churches celebrate Christmas on December 25 of the older Julian calendar, which currently corresponds to January 7 in the Gregorian calendar, the day after the Western Christian Church celebrates the Epiphany. This is not a disagreement over the date of Christmas as such, but rather a preference of which calendar could be used to determine the day that is December 25. Moreover, for Christians, the belief that God came into the globe in the form of man to atone for the sins of humanity, rather than the exact birth date, is considered to be the basic purpose in celebrating Christmas.[26][27][28][29] The celebratory customs associated in different countries with Christmas have a mix of pre-Christian, Christian, and secular themes and origins.[30] Famous modern customs of the holiday contain gift giving, completing an Advent calendar or Advent wreath, Christmas melody and caroling, lighting a Christingle, viewing a Nativity play, an exchange of Christmas cards, church services, a unique food, and the display of different Christmas decorations, including Christmas trees, Christmas lights, nativity scenes, garlands, wreaths, mistletoe, and holly. In addition, a few closely similar and often interchangeable figures, known as Santa Claus, Father Christmas, Saint Nicholas, and Christkind, are associated with bringing bonuses to kids during the Christmas season and have their own body of traditions and lore.[31] Because gift-giving and a lot of another aspects of the Christmas festival involve heightened economic activity, the holiday has become a significant happening and a key sales period for retailers and businesses. The economic impact of Christmas has grown steadily over the past few centuries in a lot of regions of the globe.
