Christmas blessing

Holiday spiritual wish

A Christmas blessing is a prayer, benediction, or expression of good wishes offered during the Christmas season.

It may be spoken before a holiday meal, written in greeting cards, or delivered as part of religious services: The pastor gave the Christmas blessing before we ate.

The phrase also describes any fortunate occurrence during the holiday period: Finding that flight was a Christmas blessing.
