Our Jesse Tree

Please excuse the distractions on the wall behind it.

This is our first year doing the Jesse Tree and we are using the FREE eBook from Holy Experience, called Jesse Tree Journey. This is a beautiful ebook for the Christmas season. Written to show God's love for His creation and His desire to send a rescuer fron their sin... His own Son, Jesus.
We've actually been re-reading some of the Jesus Storybook Bible, just the stories that pertain to the particular day's devotional. It still has the same effect:

God loves us.
He created us.
He longs for us.
He Sent His SON for us.

It's this longing that should cause a longing in our own hearts.

To wait for the coming Messiah.

What a beautiful truth to be teaching our children.

It's not too late to start the Jesse Tree Journey. QUICK! Download it, print it out, print out the beautiful ornaments on some nice cardstock. Find a simple tree, tree branch, or even a silouette of a tree on a wall. You will not regret adding this to your school day!
