There seems to be agreement that canceling Christmas Sunday worship isn't the right answer.

I keep struggling for a biblical example.

If you can find one, pass it on to me. I can't think of any example where you could forgo the day of worship because an at home holiday took precedence.

That's right. I don't even know why folks wouldn't attend Chistmas services anyway.

Matt 22:36-37
"Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" Jesus replied: "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'[Deut. 6:5] This is the first and greatest commandment.

It's His birthday.

I don't think you will find a Biblical example for cancelling it altogether, but limiting the number of services seems apropo, expecially in light of the fact that most Churches have Christmas eve services. Just pretend your Christmas eve service is in another time zone. That would be consistent with our time/space discussions.
