We spent the Advent season celebrating the birth of Jesus. We did the Jesse tree again this year long with a devotional explaining the reasons why Jesus born and the kids picked a people group to pray for for the month. On Christmas we had a birthday party of Jesus. This year the kids were each different characters in the birth of Jesus story. We learned a name of God each day of advent and they had their scavenger hunt around the house to find Jesus answering questions from all of their learning through the month.
We went to a couple of Christmas parties, one a friend had and the other we had for the students I have been helping learn English. We were able to sing songs in their heart language and Todd was able to share the story of Jesus' birth in their language.
We also went to an English performance of some students we had met at one of the parties. It was a good month of celebrating Jesus.
