Jesus Is Born

Jesus Is Born

Read pages 170–173 in The Peace Table: A Storybook Bible or Luke 2:1–20. The angels sang about peace on earth. Draw or paint pictures of what that might look like. Pray prayers of praise to God for the LOVE that Jesus brings to the world. Every day have family members take a photo of someone or something they love. At the end of the week, look back at the photos and sing “Away in a Manger.” Create a treasure box using a small tissue box or something similar. Mary treasured the words of the shepherds. What are you treasuring this Christmas season? Have family members write or draw pictures of what they treasure and put them in the box. Pack it up with your decorations and be prepared to look back at your treasures next year.
