Advent season, preparing the hearts of our children

Christmas is a beautiful time for Christians.

A celebration of the birth of our Savior!

Advent is the season.
Advent means the "arrival."
The entire month of December is beautiful in that we celebrate advent ~
the long awaited, arrival of a Savior.
Our family made a wooden manger to keep central in our Advent season. 

There are many ways to make this time special for your family and turn their eyes; hearts to Jesus during an also very busy, commercialized holiday. I hope that your family has traditions that make this season especially worshipful.
Below are a few ideas.
 We would love to hear from you, simply post how your family celebrates the birth of our Savior to share with others!
               Display a manger scene - talking through the birth story of Jesus as you put it out.
               Create a Jesse Tree
               Light an Advent wreath, Advent Devotions
               The Three Gifts 
              Choose wisely & purposefully the gifts you give your children              

Tis the season to celebrate a Savior's birth, a Savior born to die for our sins!
