Jwaye Nowe from Haiti! Merry Christmas! In Haiti there is a tradition of constructing “Fanals.” These are cheery little lantern-like houses and churches cut out of paper with candles used to illuminate the colorful tissue paper windows. The fanals are a century old tradition that, it is said, used to light the way for worshippers for Midnight Mass. May this rendition of a fanal brighten your night for Christmas Eve.
