As we were trying to decide what we wanted to give neighbors this Christmas Robert remembered an idea from a home teacher when he was little. It's a 12 days of Christmas in Scripture. Get a tall slender candle, mark 12 even sections on it. Each night read a scripture passage and discuss it and don't stop until it is melted to the marked line. I know we are a day late and this should have started on Saturday night but maybe fit two in one night that isn't quite as crazy. It's just a nice way to reflect on the Savior and remembering the reason for the season amongst all of the distractions! :-)
Here are the 12 passages:
Day 1--Luke 1 26-38 (Start reading on December 13)
Day 2--3 Nephi 1:4-9
Day3--Luke 1:39-45
Day 4--2 Nephi 9:19-22
Day 5--Matthew 1:18-25
Day 6--3 Nephi 1:12-21
Day 7--Matthew 2:1-12
Day 8--Helaman 14:2-6
Day 9--Luke 2: 1-7
Day10--Isaiah 9:6-7
Day 11--Luke 2:8-20
Day 12--Isaiah 7:14 (Finish reading on 24 December)
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
