Tirupati: The spirit of Christmas brought joy and togetherness as people gathered at churches and cathedrals to offer prayers and exchange greetings. Places of worship were beautifully decorated with colourful lights, Christmas trees and festive embellishments, while children dressed as Santa Claus added to the cheerful atmosphere.
Christians commemorated the birth of Jesus Christ on December 25 with religious fervour. Morning sermons at churches drew large congregations and midnight prayers on Christmas Eve saw thousands participating in the celebrations.
