2019 would be a year of advancement of resistance and uprisings towards freedom and victory
Suffering Christians of Iran, fellow compatriots, followers of Jesus Christ around the world,
My greetings for Christmas, on the birth of Jesus Christ, son of Mary, the great prophet of God.
And I bow before the Virgin Mary, the eternal example of innocence and purity.
The birthday of Jesus Christ is a jubilant celebration for the enchained humanity that yearns for emancipation and fraternity.
He was the messenger of compassion and friendship. He used to say, “whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” (Matthew 25: 35-40)
Christ set a tradition that showed men that they could be privileged by sacrificing for others. He said, “Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” (John 15: 9-17)
He described the sublime existence of human beings as living to serve others and not themselves. He said that he had not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many. (Matthew 20: 25-28)

Maryam Rajavi attends Christmas Eve service

Dear Christians in Iran and everywhere else,
Supporters of the Iranian Resistance across the world,
I would like to greet you on Christmas and the birth of Jesus Christ, which has coincided this year with the birthday of the Prophet Mohammad.
I would also like to extend my greetings for the New Year.

I wish  that 2016  would be a year  of unity and victory  over Islamic extremism  and especially  the religious fascism  ruling Iran  and its evil allies  in the Middle East  who sow  the seeds of enmity  in the world.
We remember Jesus Christ when he said:  “Love one another just as I love you”.
Also in the Quran, God says about Mohammad:  “We sent thee as a Mercy for all mankind”.

This is the message of all divine religions and therefore, the coincidence of the two births, is a feast of brotherhood among all nations.
Fortunate are those who have found the essence of Christianity and Islam in love, compassion and freedom.
And we salute Virgin Mary, the symbol of love and sacrifice who is described in the Bible as “loved by God”.
The birth and emergence of every prophet mark a new birth for mankind in social life.
When our world is under the attack of terror and extremism, we can find the light of freedom and tolerance and perseverance against fundamentalism and extremism in these births.
Muslims and Christians can rely on their common values to stand up to those who pervert their religions
So, in contrast to what the extremists want, we should make our hope and faith in humanity deeper than ever.
Let us hope for a swift end to extremism and for the freedom of the people of Syria from dictatorships of Bashar Assad, Khamenei and Daesh terrorists.
Let us hope for end to displacement and homelessness of Christians throughout the Middle East.
And let us hope for the relief of Christian converts in Iran from the oppression of ruling mullahs and for freedom of the whole Iranian nation from this religious dictatorship.
On this occasion,  I call on the world community  to form an international front  against the religious dictatorship in Iran  and its proxies and militia  in Syria and Iraq  and to fight Islamic extremism,  the enemy of true Muslims,  Christians  and all followers  of other divine religions.
May the message of compassion, freedom and tolerance engulf the Middle East.
May the world get relieved from tyranny and fundamentalism and have a new birth and revival.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all.
