Holiday on 24th December 2020 due to Christmas Eve

Merry Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve on 24th Dec 2020

 

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve is a Restricted holiday falls on December 24th, 2020 Thursday as per Govt. Dopt 2020 holiday list. Christmas Eve is widely observed as a full or partial holiday in anticipation of Christmas Day. Since tradition holds that Jesus was born at night (based in Luke 2:6-8), Midnight Mass is celebrated on Christmas Eve, traditionally at midnight, in commemoration of his birth.

The idea of Jesus being born at night is reflected in the fact that Christmas Eve is referred to as Heilige Nacht (Holy Night) in German, Nochebuena (the Good Night) in Spanish and similarly in other expressions of Christmas spirituality, such as the song “Silent Night, Holy Night”.

Some Christians start Christmas Day with a midnight service, called Midnight Mass. Christians often celebrate Christmas by giving and receiving presents and cards. This reminds them of the gift of Jesus, beginning his earthly life.
