Merry Christmas, Pelican+ Family!

From all of us here at Pious Pelican Media, we wish you a very Merry Christmas. May the joy of our Savior’s birth be with you and your family this Christmas season.

Since launching Pelican+ on October 7th, we have been overwhelmed by your enthusiasm and support. As a heartfelt thank you for joining us on this journey and believing in our mission, we’re excited to share some Christmas gifts with you—freely given as our way of expressing gratitude for your support and prayers.

Our Christmas Gifts to You

During the Christmas Octave, these treasures will be available FREE to all members with a signed-in account. Simply log in to your Pelican+ account to unwrap these gifts and let them warm your heart and home.

The First Christmas — Audio Drama

In this Pelican+ Original Christmas Special, Nicholas Fernandez & Josh Canevari—creators of Martyrs and Miracle Men—retell the story of the very first Christmas with reverence, clarity, and wonder.

Follow the Holy Family as they undertake the long and difficult journey to Bethlehem in obedience to the Roman census, carrying with them the hopes of Israel and the quiet fulfillment of ancient prophecy. Against the darkness of a fallen world and the indifference of empire, the Son of God enters history not in splendor, but in humility.

He whom the whole world could not contain was contained in the womb of a woman. Born in the biting cold of a cave, laid upon straw, the Savior of mankind—the eternal Word through whom all things were made—takes on flesh and dwells among us. Shepherds are summoned from the fields, angels proclaim peace on earth, and heaven bends low to meet the world it came to redeem.

This audio drama invites you and your family to slow down and behold the mystery at the heart of Christmas: that the Creator of the universe chose poverty, obscurity, and love, that man might be restored. A story not merely remembered, but entered anew—calling hearts back to Bethlehem, and to the Child who is the very reason for the season.

A Christmas Special — Collaborator Reflections

Join the collaborators of Pelican+ for a special Christmas reflection. Hear from the hearts of those who bring you the content you love as they share what this holy season means to them and their families.

Sacred Music from the Benedictines of Mary

We are also making two amazing albums by the Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles from Gower, Missouri, available to all Pelican+ members:

Caroling at Ephesus — Fill your home with the beautiful voices of these contemplative sisters as they sing beloved Christmas carols.

Christmas at Ephesus — Experience the reverence and peace of Christmas through the sacred music of these faithful Benedictine nuns.

How to Access Your Gifts

Accessing these gifts is simple: just sign in to your FREE Pelican+ account during the Christmas Octave, and you’ll find all four gifts waiting for you. No premium subscription required—this is our gift to the entire Pelican+ community.

Share the Joy

The First Christmas audio drama is also available on YouTube so that thousands of people can benefit from this amazing retelling of the birth of our Savior. We invite you to share it with friends, family, and your parish community.

Watch and share on YouTube:

This Christmas, gather the family, light a candle, and let these gifts draw you deeper into the wonder of the Incarnation. Share them with those you love. Invite others to experience the beauty of our faith through story and song.

More to Come

As we enter into the Octave of Christmas, look forward to additional interviews, inspiring stories, and content that we hope will bring joy to you and your family throughout the season.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for believing in Pelican+ from the start and making us part of your family’s Christmas.

May the joy of the Savior reign in your hearts as we celebrate His birth.

Merry Christmas!
