CHRISTMAS BULLETIN



A week before Christmas…


The world including the so called FIRST WORLD COUNTRIES is in frenzy with economic RECESSION. Just a few months back, no one even want to use the term but as of the news update in the last few weeks… the term RECESSION already seems like an understatement… we are actually moving towards DEPRESSION (deep recession?). Announcements of lay-offs and suspended operation till mid January by BIG Automotive and various industry will result in loss of the usual “Christmastime Income” for hundreds of thousands employees, in turn it will most definitely impact the retailers and peripheral holiday businesses.

It is not just the economy that is gloomy these days… Environment Canada (weather ministry) is warning of an upcoming series of snow storm that will hit Greater Toronto Area this weekend. To add drama to the coming bad weather and snow dump, the ministry has tagged a scary term for it … “SNOWMAGEDDON”.

Should bad economic and weather forecast damp our Christmas celebration? If Christmas is all about spending for gifts, eating good food and enjoying the pleasant breeze of December… maybe… but before we allow ourselves to be pulled down by the situation… let’s remind ourselves of the words of a classic Christmas Carol,


GOD REST ye merry gentlemen LET NOTHING YOU DISMAY,

REMEMBER CHRIST our SAVIOUR was born on CHRISTMAS DAY to SAVE us all from Satan’s power…”


That would be a nice Christmas carol to sing, hum or whistle while we shovel the snow!


Wishing You All the blessings of the TRUE meaning of Christmas…

EMMANUEL, God with us as we go forward to a brand NEW YEAR 2009!


-Edgardo, Elaine, Louie and Chester
