Christmas Speeches…A Call for Help

Good day, everyone

My annual company Christmas Dinner Party occurs in January this year. I thought that I should use my Toastmaster skills to speak about the Holiday season with emphasis on the New Year. Almost everyone at my workplace knows that I am with Toastmasters and they will be looking for my newly groomed public speaking skills.

I decided to search for ‘Christmas Speeches’ -and for ‘New Year’s Speeches’- and I was disappointed by the quality of what I read. Granted, I did not spend a whole afternoon searching for something but I did look for a half-hour and did not find the right tone, sentiments, or substance that I thought would be appropriate for a group of people that work together and who do not know each other’s private lives.

Can you help me locate some speeches that express the holiness of the season and also inspires people for the New Year? I will write my own speech and it would be very helpful to have something that I can draw ideas from.

Thanks for any help that you can provide.
