About CHRISTMAS - What is it?
Birth of Jesus
About 2000 years ago God sent an angel to Israel, to a virgin named Mary. She was engaged to Joseph, a carpenter. The angel told Mary that by God's power, she would conceive and bear a son.
When Joseph learned that she was pregnant, an angel instructed him to marry her. Joseph took her to Bethlehem to register for a census. While there, Mary gave birth to Jesus. She laid him in a manger because there was no room at the inn or anywhere else. Shepherds, informed by armies of angels, came to worship Jesus in Bethlehem.
Later, wise men guided by a bright star brought gifts to Jesus: gold, frankincense, myrrh. They had told Herod the Great, the king in Jerusalem, that Jesus would rule Israel. So Herod sent soldiers to kill the children in Bethlehem. Warned by an angel, Joseph took the family to Egypt. After Herod died, they returned to Israel and raised Jesus in a town called Nazareth.
