The Society of Young Nigerian Writers (SYNW) has enjoined Christians to use the occasion of Christmas to renew love and affection to one another.
SYNW in its Christmas message said that love is the essence of the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, whose life epitomizes peace, sacrifice, tolerance and mercy.
SYNW in a Christmas message signed by its President, Wole Adedoyin said “it is hoped that the gift of love and great joy which are the hallmark of Christmas, will envelope our hearts this season and in years to come.
The message further read “As we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ today, there is no conceivable alternative for our Christian brothers and sisters, other than renew their minds towards living the life Jesus Christ lived, while on earth. In the midst of the merriment, we should reflect on the ideals He preached and practiced, which are love, peace and tolerance.
Just as his birth was heralded with joy, we should continually be joyful, despite our challenges, hopeful for a more prosperous nation.”
SYNW finally wished the Christian faithful a merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
