Yes, There is a Santa Claus.
   Author:   Teresa McEachern.
   Article::   Copyright © 2006 Teresa McEachern.


"In 1897, a young girl named Virginia wrote a letter to the New York Sun asking if Santa Claus really did exist. Some of her friends, she stated, no longer believed in him. The reply was an editorial by Frank Church entitled, "Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus." It contained the following message: "Not believe in Santa Claus ! You might as well not believe in fairies . . . Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those which neither children nor men can see. No Santa Claus! Thank God, he lives and he lives forever." Jack Maguire

There is a legacy in the unseen that brings hope.

The legend of Santa Claus begins with a real person who lived in the 4th century in the village of Patra in what is now known as Turkey. St. Nicholas came from a wealthy Christian home, and when his parents died when he was young he followed the biblical precept to sell what you own and give to the poor.

One story told about St. Nicholas is about his concern for a poor man that had three daughters. This man could not provide a dowry for his daughters, which at that time destined them to slavery. It is said that three bags of gold mysteriously appeared in their stockings or shoes that were left in front of the fireplace to dry. After this many children left their stockings in front of the fireplace in hopes of finding gold coins in them, too. Thus an unseen event brings hope that a child's future can be bright.

When St. Nicholas was young, he decided to take a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. While returning home by sea, his ship was threatened by a violent storm. It is said that when St. Nicholas prayed the storm ceased, to the amazement of the sailors. After this many sailors claimed St. Nicholas as their patron, building chapels named after him in seaports in Italy, France, Greece and even in Russia after Vladimir I brought stories of St. Nicholas' devotion back home with him. From a simple act of faith in the Unseen begins a legacy of hope for protection and safety.

It was the sailors that brought St. Nicholas to our part of the world. Vikings built a cathedral in Greenland. Columbus built a port in Haiti named after the saint. Spaniards named a town in Florida St. Nicholas Ferry - now known as Jacksonville. During the American Revolution patriots founded the Sons of St. Nicholas to rival the British St. George Societies. In a New World, belief in a saint long departed brings hope for a bright and secure future.

In 1809 Washington Irving, a member of the Sons of St. Nicholas, published Knickerbocker's History of New York where the saint is characterized as a Dutch burgher who climbed down chimneys to bring gifts. In 1823 The Night Before Christmas was written, introducing St. Nicholas as a new character, Santa Claus. These works of creative fiction may have produced the red-suited bearded jolly man that we see in every mall during the holiday season, but at its foundation is the man who lived a life of faith and generosity - and isn't that the true spirit of Christmas? And so, a man who lived his life in the 4th century practicing simple acts of kindness leaves a legacy of hope for us.

This Christmas why not begin your own legacy by practicing random acts of kindness. It doesn't have to be big. In a drive thru pay for the person's order who is behind you. Donate food to the food bank. Be creative! Open yourself up to the exciting world of anonymous gift giving, and like St. Nicholas, you will bring hope to people around you - and maybe even farther than you can imagine.

Christmas & Santa Claus Articles & Contents
Christmas & Santa Claus Articles "Santa Claus' reindeer are a team of reindeer which pull his sleigh and help him deliver Christmas gifts. According to Kris Kringle (Miracle on 34th Street), they only fly on Christmas Eve.

The names of the original eight reindeer are taken from the 1823 poem A Visit from St. Nicholas, which led to the popularity of reindeer as Christmas symbols. The poem reads in part:

With a little old driver so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.
More rapid than eagles, his coursers they came,
And he whistled and shouted and called them by name:

Now Dasher! Now Dancer! Now, Prancer and Vixen!
On, Comet! On, Cupid! On, Donner and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! To the top of the wall!
Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!

Over time, two more reindeer have been added: Rudolph and Robbie, the former a well-known name due to the popular Christmas song Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, the latter a British media character. "Robbie" is virtually unknown in the United States. " (Cited from Wikipedia , the Free Encyclopedia article "Santa Claus' reindeer" , Click Here to Read More ).
