The “Christmas” rotation runs November 23 – December 21. Our focus this year is on the wise men and the kingship of Jesus. The wise men followed the star and traveled to worship Jesus. Despite the bad intentions of King Herod, the message of God revealed to them to glorify the spirit of the newborn King. They brought gifts fit for a king, instead of the ill will of Herod. What gifts can you give back to God and to others by being like Jesus?
The memory verse is: Matthew 2:1-2 Wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, asking, “Where is the child who has been born king of the Jews? For we observed a star at its rising, and have come to pay him homage.”
