Just a week is left and I can hear the bells jingle! And it is time of the year when people are all set for holiday mood and await for the beginning of the New Year.

The countdown has already begun and people are preparing themselves for the season of joy. People meet their friends and loved ones or distant relatives and celebrate Christmas. And all you want to do is indulge in great food and create memories with friends and family.

Christmas is the annual Christian festival celebrating Christ’s birth on December 25. Families distribute gifts that Santa Claus left under the Christmas tree on Christmas morning (December 25). Many people attend church services on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning, and later gather for Christmas dinner with extended family and friends.

Here are some Christmas messages, wishes and images that you can share as WhatsApp messages and Facebook greetings or SMSes to celebrate Christmas 2018.
