BIRTHDAY CELEBRANT OF THE DAY:Enrique Martin Morales – RICKY MARTIN (12/24/1971), puerto rican singer, songwriter, and actor, San Juan, Puerto Rico

Christmas Eve and Orphan’s Day: Christmas Eve has its roots in Christian traditions, being the moment that precedes the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, considered the Savior in Christian faith. The date is marked by the symbolism of “awaiting” the arrival of Jesus, with biblical references that mention vigil as a form of devotion. It is a time for reflection, family unity, and spiritual preparation.

In Brazil, as in many other countries, Christmas Eve is celebrated with family gatherings, festive meals, and gift exchanges (such as “Amigo da Onça” or Secret Santa), as well as religious practices, such as the Missa do Galo (Midnight Mass) in Catholic churches. Globally, the celebration reinforces values like peace, solidarity, and love for others.

In our country, December 24 has also been chosen as Orphan’s Day due to its proximity to Christmas, a period symbolizing welcome, love, and solidarity. The date encourages reflection on the reality of children and adolescents who have grown up without the presence of their parents or guardians, promoting supportive actions and awareness about their circumstances.
