Advent: Days 1-6

Gideon and I are going through an advent project called "Truth in the Tinsel: An Advent Experience for Little Hands" by Amanda White. (truthinthetinsel.com) Each day, starting on Dec. 1, we make an ornament relating to the Christmas story in the Bible.

Day 1: Candle (Jesus was born to bring light to the dark world. Isaiah 9:2-7)

Day 2: Kingdom (Jesus came to rule over all forever. Isaiah 9:2-7) Gideon is painting his crown ornament for this. Then he decorated it with sequins.


Day 3: Zechariah (He did not believe the miracle God was going to give him and was unable to speak until the baby was born. Luke 1:5-25)


Day 4: Gabriel (He delivers the message to Mary that she will have a baby. Luke 1:26-38)


Day 5: Mary (She was God's humble servant who would deliver Jesus. Luke 1:26-38)


Day 6: Mary/Elizabeth (They were relatives who would both have special babies from God. Luke 1:39-45)
