E nā mea kūʻai aku,
Ke hoʻokokoke mai nei ke kau Kalikimaka hauʻoli a hauʻoli, makemake mākou e hāʻawi aku i ko mākou puʻuwai aloha a me ka mahalo iā ʻoe. Mahalo iā ʻoe no kou lilo ʻana i mea kūʻai waiwai nui a no kou kākoʻo mau ʻana i ka makahiki. ʻO kāu hui a me kou hilinaʻi i mea kōkua i kā mākou holomua, a ke mahalo nui nei mākou no ka manawa kūpono e lawelawe iā ʻoe.
Ua piha kēia makahiki i nā luʻi a me nā loli, akā hui pū, ua lanakila mākou iā lākou a loaʻa i nā hanana kupaianaha. ʻO kāu kākoʻo kūpaʻa ʻole i lilo i kukui hoʻoikaika, a mahalo mākou i kou hilinaʻi i kā mākou lawelawe huahana. Ua kōkua kāu mau manaʻo a me kāu hui pū ʻana iā mākou e hoʻomaikaʻi a ulu, a ke kūpaʻa nei mākou e hoʻomau mau ma mua o kāu mau manaʻo.
Ke hoʻolauleʻa nei mākou i kēia manawa kūikawā o ka makahiki, makemake mākou iā ʻoe a me kāu poʻe aloha i kahi Kalikimaka piha i ka pumehana a me ka hauʻoli. Na ka ʻuhane o ka lokahi a me ke aloha ʻohana e hoʻopuni iā ʻoe, e lawe mai i ka maluhia a me ka hauʻoli. Ke hāʻawi aku nei mākou i kā mākou makemake no ka makahiki hou olakino, pōmaikaʻi, a hoʻokō.
Makemake mākou e hōʻike i ko mākou mahalo nui no kou hilinaʻi a me kāu hui. Ma o kou kākoʻo mau ʻana mākou e hoʻoikaika ai no ka maikaʻi. Manaʻo mākou i ka hoʻomau ʻana i kā mākou hui ʻana i ka makahiki e hiki mai ana, a ke hōʻoiaʻiʻo nei mākou iā ʻoe e hana ikaika mākou e hāʻawi iā ʻoe i nā lawelawe huahana kūikawā a me kahi ʻike mea kūʻai aku.
Eia hou, mahalo no kou koho ʻana iā mākou i hoa hilinaʻi. Inā he nīnau kāu a makemake paha i ke kōkua, e ʻoluʻolu e hoʻokaʻaʻike mai iā mākou. Aia mākou ma ʻaneʻi e kōkua.
Manaʻo iā ʻoe i ka Mele Kalikimaka piha i ka hauʻoli a me nā pōmaikaʻi. Na kēia kau ʻahaʻaina e lawe mai iā ʻoe i ka ʻoluʻolu a me ka lokahi.
Aloha pumehana,
