A celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, the messenger of peace and compassion, was held at the Kahrizak Charity Home in Tehran on. The event was organized by the Majidiye Assemblies of God Church and was attended by Christian residents of the home, as well as staff and managers.

The celebration began with a recitation of verses from the Holy Bible by Christian residents of the home, including those from Kahrizak, Saraye Ehsan, and Razi Psychiatric Hospital. This created a spiritual atmosphere for the event. Other programs included performances by the Emanuel Choir and religious speeches.

Reverend Andreh EsaGholian congratulated all Christians around the world on the birth of Christ. He said that Christ was born to bring peace and tranquility to the world.

"When a child is born, his or her loved ones celebrate with joy," said EsaGholian. "But Christ was born in very different circumstances."

EsaGholian noted that although Christ preached the word of God and performed miracles to prove that he was a prophet, some people did not believe in him. They opposed him and challenged his teachings.

"We must seek God in our hearts," said EsaGholian. "When we look at the order in the universe, we feel God's presence every moment. We declare that the creation of the universe and all its order cannot be accidental."

At the end of the celebration, gifts were presented to Christian residents by Santa Claus and the managers of the charity home.
