Advent is upon us!


Instructions for ornaments found here
 Merry Christmas!

Hard to believe the season is here already, but next Sunday is the first Sunday of Advent.

This year, I thought I would try something different for our craft in the 2's class. 

I was inspired by our church's theme for advent:

HOPE
PEACE
JOY
LOVE
REJOICE

Each week, our two's class will be making ornaments to take home, that tell part of the Christmas story.


Week One: HOPE

"And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night..." Luke 2:8

Week Two: PEACE

"...the star they had seen in the east went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was." Matthew 2:9


Week Three: JOY

"An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of Lord shone around them..." Luke 2:9



Week Four: LOVE

"There was no room for them in the inn."  Luke 2:7b



Week Five: Rejoice

"She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger..." Luke 2:7a



If you miss a week, stop by the desk and I would be happy to give you the craft kit for the week you need.

May God bless you and your family in this holiday season!
