Clive and Ian's 12 Questions of Christmas

Old Version
Brother Louie: It's time for "Clive and Ian's 12 Questions of Christmas!"

Question #1: Brother Louie: Question 1!

Ian: Clive, why do they call it Christmas?

Clive: Well Ian, do you know what Communion is?

Ian: You mean, when they serve bread and juice in church?

Clive: Right. To remember Jesus in the Last Supper.

Ian: That's where they call it Christmas?

Clive: No, I'm not finished. Some churches call that Communion. Others call it the Eucharist. The celebration of the Eucharist is called the Mass in those churches.

Ian: Where does Christmas come in?

Clive: Knowledge takes time Ian. Be patient.

Ian: Sorry.

Clive: Once year in Europe, these churches would hold the Mass to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.

Ian: How do we get to Christmas?

Clive: They called that celebration, Christ's Mass.

Ian: I still don't... (gasp) Christ's Mass! Christmas!

Clive: That's how we got the word Christmas!

Ian: Oh! That made me think of another question!

Clive: Save it for tomorrow.
