Christmas marks an important moment for humanity and the celebrations surrounding the Christmas Day commemorate the great sacrifice made by Jesus Christ for humanity. Jesus was born in a barn, surrounded by farm animals and shepherds, because there was no room at the inn and he represents forgivance, generosity, compassion and kindness. This year's Christmas stamps will be based on these.
