Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary.
God even sent the messenger Gabriel to tell Joseph in a dream, telling him not to reject Mary because she was pregnant out of wedlock, but to marry her and name the child "Jesus", which means Ask him to save the people from their sins.
When Mary was about to give birth, the Roman government issued an order that all people must declare their household registration when they went to Bethlehem. Joseph and Mary had no choice but to obey.
When they arrived in Bethlehem, it was already dark. Unfortunately, they could not find a hotel to spend the night. There was only a stable for temporary accommodation. At this moment, Jesus was going to be born.
So Mary gave birth to Jesus in a manger.
Most Catholic churches will first hold midnight mass on Christmas Eve, December 24, that is, in the early morning of December 25, while some Christian churches will hold the Good News, and then on December 25 Celebrate Christmas.
