People’s Progressive PartyThe People’s Progressive Party (PPP) extends Christmas Greetings to all Guyanese in particular, our Christian brothers and sisters on the festive season of Christmas which is a festival to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.Christmas has evolved over the centuries into a national institution which has transcended the boundaries of race and nationalities. It is a time when peoples across the globe look out for each other and extend a hand of friendship to families and friends and those in need.The PPP takes this opportunity to remind Guyanese not to loose sight of the core values of peace, humility and compassion even as we celebrate this auspicious occasion of Christmas.This Christmas is being observed at a time when the country is confronted with severe challenges to our democracy by opposition forces who seem determined to turn back the wheels of progress and prosperity.The PPP is however, confident that this spirit of peace and goodwill which characterize this season of the year will serve to further propel this country of ours to a brighter future where all Guyanese will be able to realize their potential and contribute fully to the task of nation building.Once again a Happy Christmas to one and all.A Partnership For National UnityChristmas is a time to rejoice in Jesus Christ’s miraculous birth and marvelous message to all mankind.? It is also a time to rekindle the Guyanese spirit of good will.The message of the Gospel of St. Luke in the Holy Bible: “… on earth, peace, goodwill to all men” is as valid today as it was two millennia ago. Jesus Christ’s earthly mission changed the course of human history. His ministry of mercy and compassion continues to change our lives every day.Jesus Christ’s advent makes Christmas a special, sacred season. The annual celebration of His birth is a reminder of the fulfillment of the prophecy of the prophet, Isaiah, in the Holy Bible of His advent and incarnation as the “Prince of peace.”Guyanese of all religions have also been inspired by prospect, promises and prophecies of peace, and have been encouraged by the season’s sense of social responsibility. Ordinary people, social organisations and A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) have been reaching out with compassion to cheer and care for their brothers, sisters and children in difficult circumstances.Our Partnership recognises the service of our nurses, pilots, public servants,Authentic Arizona Cardinals Jersey, seamen, soldiers and other workers who maintain our public services so that others could be safe and comfortable at this time. We remember the aged, our children, the poor and other vulnerable citizens. We are grateful for their service and sacrifice.We join all Guyanese at home and in the Diaspora in making Christmas 2014 a day of “peace and good will.”Happy Christmas to all Guyanese!AFC CHRISTMAS MESSAGEChristmas is a time that holds great meaning. For Guyanese it is that time of the year when we come together to share gifts and well-wishes, re-kindle relationships and form new friendships, all in the spirit of goodwill.As we celebrate and relish the joys of this season, let us spare a thought for those whose season is overshadowed by grief and despair; those who lost a parent, sibling or other loved one due to domestic violence, a speeding or drunk motorist, or whose grief was brought about by the suicide of a loved one. Let us spare a thought for those who lost personal belongings, or whose livelihood was affected by the recent floods. Let us remember in our hearts and prayers the many persons who are battling cancer. Say a prayer for the less fortunate, especially the children who did not get a toy or new clothes this Season; things that many take for granted.This Christmas Season let us reflect on the enduring message of Christmas; that of hope. It is with hope of a brighter future that we find the strength and courage to face the many challenges that confront us each day.May the hope for a brighter future fill our hearts this Christmas Season and may we share that joy with all.Season Greetings from the Alliance For Change.People’s National Congress ReformThe miraculous birth of Jesus Christ – celebrated by most Christians on December 25– is recorded in the Gospel according to St Luke as heralding an era of “peace on earth and good will toward men.”Jesus’s humble birth took place in a common manger in a tiny town in an obscure country. He was able, nevertheless, with a small band of disciples, to preach a gospel that transformed the world in a most fundamental way and created a remarkable Christian civilization of which we are all heirs.The Christian spirit of charity continues to inspire Guyanese of all religions. Ordinary people everywhere reach out with compassion and generosity to help their brothers and sisters in distress.We call to mind the plight of the aged, the poor
