Still Waiting

Just before our Christmas break, we took a few minutes to look around the Sanctuary and see how the church has been preparing for baby Jesus.  We saw the beautiful stars cascading down from the ceiling and looked at all of the Chrismons that decorated the trees at the altar.  A Chrismon is a Christmas ornament made from symbols in the church.  We saw many of the same ornaments that we made in our classrooms to take home.  We ended our visit with a quiet prayer for Mary & Joseph and a prayer for hearts to remember the real reason for this special holiday.  We will watch for the brightest star to show the way to baby Jesus on Christmas night and wait patiently for his number one... best helper... Santa to stop by our house too..
