Christmas 2025 was observed across the world with a mix of celebration, reflection and resilience. At the Vatican, Pope Leo led his first Christmas Eve Mass, calling for peace and compassion as thousands gathered in St Peter’s Square. Paris marked the season with services at the restored Notre-Dame, while India, Indonesia and the United States saw colourful community celebrations and festive landmarks. In contrast, Christmas was marked quietly in conflict-affected regions. Worshippers gathered in Bethlehem, Gaza, Iraq and Ukraine amid war and displacement, offering prayers for stability and peace. From flood-hit villages to shelters and churches, faith endured despite hardship. Even aboard the International Space Station, astronauts sent festive wishes, underscoring a shared moment of hope across borders
