Description:

The iconic story of the birth of Jesus, which we now celebrate at Christmas, can always bear retelling. In this story, we are reminded of the difficult and humble circumstances in which Jesus was born, and the people who travelled long distances to welcome the little baby into the world. We are prompted to remember that, while we give gifts at Christmas, as the wise men gave gifts to Jesus, this time should not be only about the presents, but is an occasion that should be used to honour the coming of our Saviour and the life of love and peace that He lived.
