Hi Parents and Grandparents!
It is very hard for me to believe that a year has passed. 2013 is just days away. I hope that 2013 brings you great joy. My prayer for your children is the same for my own, that they grow even closer to the Lord every day. That their relationship with our Lord and Savior is stronger with each new day. Happy New Year and God bless you all.

The Wise Men Visited Jesus Matthew 2:1-12
Bible Story Brief -
• Far from Bethlehem, wise men watched the stars in the nighttime sky. One night they saw a new star shining brightly.They knew the star meant a special child had been born.They wanted to see Him and give Him gifts.
• The wise men traveled across the desert sand to Jerusalem.There they asked King Herod, “Where is the special child? We saw a bright star in the sky and knew He had been born.We want to worship Him.”
• King Herod was not happy to hear about Jesus. He called the priests and teachers together and asked them where the baby was to be born.They answered,“In Bethlehem.That’s what the Bible scroll says.”
• Then King Herod told the wise men to go to Bethlehem. He said, “Go! Look for the boy.When you find Him, tell me so I can go and worship Him, too.”
• After leaving King Herod, the wise men saw the bright star again and followed it until it stopped over the house where Jesus was.They were very glad! They entered the house and saw Jesus with His mother, Mary. The wise men bowed down to worship Jesus.Then they gave their gifts to Jesus.
• Mary and her little boy, Jesus, looked at the sparkling gold. They smelled the sweet perfumes of frankincense and myrrh.
• When it was time for the wise men to leave, God told them in a dream not to go back to King Herod. So they traveled home on a different road.
Bible Verse - The wise men worshiped Jesus. Matthew 2:11
