The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

What a great time of the year to be in the Primary!  There is just something magical about being around children at Christmas time. 

This month, we have focused on the birth of Christ, of course, but also on His death, resurrection and Second Coming.  Sister Francom blessed us all by reading her favorite childhood Christmas Story, Davey and the First Christmas.  The children listened intently as she read the story of Christ's birth from the point of view of the donkey and his young owner. 

This past Sunday, we had an Easter celebration, complete with jelly beans and plastic eggs.  We talked about the correlation between Easter and Christmas, and the idea that without Easter, there would be no Christmas.  Each child got an ornament to take home to their Christmas tree.  (We do have extra, so if you missed this week, let Sister Murphy know.)

It is our wish that each of the primary kids will feel the true spirit of this Christmas season.  Merry Christmas!
