Christmas

Christmas
"Latter-day Saints are cautioned that holiday shopping, decorating, and festivities should not obscure the remembrance of Christ nor hinder the quest for peace on earth." Encyclopedia of Mormonism
Why Do We Celebrate Christmas on December 25?
"Latter-day Saints believe the feelings of goodwill often exhibited during the traditional Christmas season inspire people to do good and show more Christlike mannerisms in their daily lives......Therefore, we believe that the Lord approves of having Christmas in December. " W. John Walsh
