We’ll begin this week with a reading of Luke 2:8-14. My kids are very familiar with this scripture because of the Slugs and Bugs Sing the Bible Family Christmas album as well as the Charlie Brown Christmas special, so we’ll invite them to say the angel’s words with us.
The ultimate good news, the reason we celebrate Christmas is that Jesus is the Lord! He is sovereign of all, now and forever! This is what the angel was telling the shepherds, and they were so excited, they hurried away to see for themselves and to spread the good news!
We’ll read Psalm 33 one more time while looking back over our paintings, box of How long? Questions, and He’s Got the Whole World in his Hands pictures.
Finally, to close out our fourth Sunday of Advent, we’ll use cookie cutters to create angel, shepherd, and sheep-shaped cookies to decorate and retell the story of Luke 2.
