Send religious Christmas cards to your Catholic or Christian friends for the holidays.  

A video greeting is a unique and intimate way of expressing your personal Christmas messages. Videos make your prayers and messages more sincere and genuine than mere written words. 

Express your faith, share the joy of the Christmas season, and embody the true meaning of Christmas by using a video greeting card for your gifts. 

You don’t necessarily need to send your greeting card as an e-card. The best part about these cards is its printable and digital nature, so you can send them as printed cards even with videos. 

This guide will help you discover religious Christmas messages, gifts, and video greeting ideas below. 

Why send a religious video greeting card for Christmas

When you send a religious message through a video greeting card, you’re actually showing sincerity and effort through a video. What makes a greeting card with videos special?

Christmas is the most awaited major holiday for Christians. About 96 percent of Christians celebrate Christmas, and two-thirds see it as a religious occasion. Just imagine how many religious greeting cards a person can receive throughout the Advent season.

Compared with traditional cards, adding videos to your Christmas card not only makes it more interesting, but it also makes the card personalized and unique, which increases its value. With videos, you can express warm Christmas messages just like you would in person. 

You don’t have to compromise the greeting card experience by sending digital greeting cards online. Now, you can send actual printed greeting cards even with videos.

Also, your GiftLips video greetings are interactive, so your loved ones won’t have to send you anything just to let you know that they got your message. All they need to do is leave a comment under your videos.
