  • 12 Days of Christmas
    KEEPING THE TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS AT HOME Ideas for Families with children Christmas isn’t just one day, but a whole season! It lasts twelve days, from Christmas Day to Epiphany (January 6). Keep celebrating! Gather with friends and family, eat cookies, enjoy your Christmas decoration, watch Christmas movies, and sing all your favorite Christmas songs. Song suggestions for each day follow, but sing whichever ones your family likes best. Wednesday, December 26 / Sing “Joy to the World” ELW 267. Bundle up and go outside to sing. Join your voices with the fields, rocks hills, and all the earth! Jesus is born, ant this is good news for creation. Notice the ways that the world outside is “singing” its praise: Listen for birds singing, the sound of the wind through the tree branches, and other nature sounds. Thursday, December 27 / Sing “Go Tell It On The Mountain” ELW 290 Today the church remembers St. John, Apostle and Evangelist. John’s gospel describes Christ as the Word-made-flesh who came to live among us. In Jesus, God comes to us in person to bring us love and light. With John and all messengers of good tidings, we shout from the mountaintop the joyful news that Jesus is born! Friday, December 28 / Sing “O Little Town of Bethlehem” (ELW 279) Build a fort out of chairs, couches, pillows, and blankets. Make sure there is plenty of room in the inn – fill your fort with stuffed animals, family members, and pets. Light a flashlight, lantern or battery-powered candle inside your fort and think about Jesus being born among the animals in that little town called Bethlehem.

    NEIRAD HOLIDAY SEASON 2007 Darien High School Holiday Season 2007 10 H OLIDAY S EA S ON 2 0 0 7 Darien Gets a Taste of Winter Courtney Whiting and Hadley Green Explore Suburban Wintertime Christy’s Santa Story Christy Lattimer ————————————————————————————— Staff Writer Everyone knows the classic movie “A Christmas Story”, one of the funniest holiday tales of all time. And for those who aren’t quite feeling that holiday spirit, I highly suggest you see the film. The movie has an important message – beware of Santa!! “A Christmas Story” is the be- loved tale of young Ralphie Parker a child on a desperate mission to get a Red Ryder BB Gun for Christmas. I especially loved this movie because I was able to connect with dear little Ralphie. As Ralphie and I found, Santa is not always nice. Like every child, Ralphie and I had the dream of fi- nally landing a face-to-face with the “Christy’s Santa Story” jolly fat man: a final chance to tell the Christmas CEO about that one spe- cial present. Imagine how Ralphie and I felt when the moment was de- stroyed. But when Ralphie finally gets his shot he is ripped off Santa’s lap. As Ralphie is about to be pushed down the slide he beseeches Santa with a request for the Red Ryder BB Gun. Santa responds by shoving Ralphie down the slide! This scene rings all too true. When I was a mere six-years-old I too went to visit Mr. Claus filled with hope for that one special gift: a warm little Sinterklass: Back to Ole Europe puppy.

  • History of the Christmas Tree
    The Christmas Archives by Countess Maria Hubert von Staufer THE CHRONOLOGICAL HISTORY OF THE CHRISTMAS TREE St. Boniface Story hy do we have a decorated Christmas Tree? In the 7th century a monk from Crediton, Devonshire, went to Germany to teach the Word of God. He did many good works there, and spent much time in Thuringia, an area which was to become the cradle of the Christmas Decoration Industry. Legend has it that he used the triangular shape of the Fir Tree to describe the Holy Trinity of God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The converted people began to revere the Fir tree as God's Tree, as they had previously revered the Oak. By the 12th century it was being hung, upside- down, from ceilings at Christmastime in Central Europe, as a symbol of Christianity. The first decorated tree was at Riga in Latvia, in 1510. In the early 16th century, Martin Luther is said to have decorated a small Christmas Tree with candles, to show his children how the stars twinkled through the dark night. 1 Christmas Markets In the mid 16th century, Christmas markets were set up in German towns, to provide everything from Christmas presents, food and more practical things such as a knife grinder to sharpen the knife to carve the Christmas Goose! At these fairs, bakers made shaped gingerbreads and wax ornaments for people to buy as souvenirs of the fair, and take home to hang on their Christmas Trees. The best record we have is that of a visitor to Strasbourg in 1601.

  • Seeing Christ in Today's Christmas
    Seeing Christ in Today’s Christmas Bruce Satterfield Brigham Young University - Idaho I remember looking around my childhood home at Christmas time and seeing a green tree ornamented with lights, golden ornaments and silver tinsel. There would be presents under the tree. Above our fireplace stockings were hung. Mistletoe was hung above the entrance way into the dining room. A wreath was hung on the door. Pictures of Santa Claus, Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, and Frosty the Snow Man were hung around the house. Special candles were brought out and a nutcracker placed on the fireplace mantle. The outside of our house was always decorated with lights and we always wished for snow! My parents used to send cards to everybody, even people they hadn’t seen in years. As I saw these things they would excite within me the thrill of the Christmas season. Yet, often I wondered what any of these things had to do with the birth of Christ that we were celebrating. It seemed that the birth of Christ was only of incidental concern at Christmas. As I grew, I remember hearing people complain about various aspects of the Christmas season. I remember such comments as, “If Christmas is a time to remember Christ why do we have a Santa Claus or a Christmas tree?” When I was in high school, in an effort to convince me that the Christmas tree was of pagan origin, one of my friends showed me a scripture out of the Old Testament which reads: “For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
