Born in Bethlehem

Read pages 170–173 in The Peace Table: A Storybook Bible or Luke 2:1–20The angel said, “I am bringing good news which will fill your hearts with joy.” Name things that fill your heart with joy.  Pray a prayer of blessing. Pass a candle around the circle with each family member saying “the love of Christ be with you” to the next person.   Go on a scavenger hunt! Take turns hiding a baby doll or a baby Jesus from a nativity set. The person who finds the baby gets to hide it for the next round.
