The Life of Jesus Christ

A traditon we started last year and love every minute of it... I gather pictures of our Savior from our gospel art kit, of his life and ministry from the very beginning when the angel appeared to Mary. Starting December 1st all the way to December 25th we do a picure each night, some nights we do 2 pictures. On the back of each picture is the story so we read the story that goes along with the picture and then tape it up on our wall in order.

These pictures bring such a sweet spirit to our home. When you walk in a room and see ALL these pictures of Christ you can't help but think of him. We as a family get to know and love our Savior better during the month of December and hopefully keep it with us throughout the coming year. We each have our favorite pictures, and favorite stories. We all look forward to our Jesus picture each night.

We also have a whole notebook of Christmas stories for 25 days and with each story is a scripture and a Christmas song, so after we read the Jesus picture we would read a story from our notebook. We got to have family home evening every night! :)
