The Christmas Village

December 13, 2020

Many of us have our own Christmas traditions. One of my favorites is The Christmas Village.

When my grandchildren were young, they helped me display the pieces on a snow-covered mat. And pretended they were the actual children in the scene.

Their age-related cousins joined us, and they, too, became the children in the village.

They shopped for toys,

purchased candy,

and attended church to hear the message of Christ’s birth.

Whatever your tradition, let us rejoice about the real reason we celebrate Christmas–the birth of Jesus.

P.S. Don’t forget to sing Silent Night.

Merry Christmas!

    Your village is charming and whimsical. Makes me smile . . . surely a scene to bring all kinds of stories to children, anticipating the arrival of Christmas. Hope your Christmas is filled with children and stories of all ages!
    Love, Karen

      Hi Debbie. So nice to hear that your nativity scene is the first
      thing to go up and last to come down. Thank you for the nice
      comment about Bonnie. I’m sure she’s blessed to be part of
      your church family. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you
      too. Blessings, Patsy
