Wafer
Its name is connected with the
Latin word “oblatum” which means a gift.
This is just a thin piece of crunchy wheat
flour and water. There are Christmas
scenes on it .
The tradition of sharing bread derives
from pagan traditions.
Now it is a Christian custom, and we
share the wafer before the Christmas
supper.
When we give wishes to each other, we
shall forgive all the faults, and sit at
the table with clear hearts.
