Christmas Celebration at Ras Al Khaiyhma UAE

Cold weather perfect for Christmas celebration....the parking lot well-decorated Government for the consecutive year....a lot of faithful from the parish and close by the parish where the church is not open....made our Christmas celebrations perfect....for me it was a first Christmas in the gulf....
On 24th evening onwards we had Celebration of the Eucharist and the church, basement, church campus with LCD was filled in by the faithful with social distancing and wearing of the Mask....the government officials were all guarding and watching....perfect response to government's appeal....Jesus, the savior protected all of us.....the midnight Mass was the height of all.....
On 25th we had 7 Masses which were again well attended....our parishioners and parishioners from Dubai took an active part....
We are three priests, Fr. Thomas Sebastian, PP, Fr. Ronelo is a Philipiano preist and me....
We had Christmas Lunch together with 5 staff members who work for the Church...wonderful time spent together....Fr. Thomas was Santa who came with gifts for each one of us
The parking place illuminated by the government....
The faithful participating in the Holy Eucharist ....outside the Church...
Carolers singing glory to God in front of the Crib...
Christmas Day was a Sunny Day....profited by taking some selfies
