Today is the last day of the week for many as we go into the long weekend and the beginning of church services to celebrate the birth of Jesus, the centre of the Christian world.

Christians begin their church services tonight and tomorrow to celebrate Jesus' birth.

It is a time when people are encouraged to remember the humility of Jesus, who was born in a stable in Bethlehem, to parents Joseph and Mary, visited by angels, shepherds and three Kings.

A boy, who later in adulthood, is believed by Christians, to have saved the whole world.
