 Jesse Trees have three main parts: Atree, symbol- ic ornaments, and passages or scripture readings. Each day during advent, hang a new ornament on the tree and read a passage. Although Advent technically starts on the fourth Sunday before Christmas, start on December first to keep things simple.   When you celebrate Advent with Charac- ter’s for Advent, you will learn how many of the im- portant stories of the Bible relate both to each other and, most importantly, to Jesus. The daily approach of a Jesse Tree helps both children and adults grow in appreciation and excitement for the coming season of Christmas.  This is why Bible Characters for Advent and a Jesse Tree are one of the best ways to celebrate the season of Advent and to truly appreciate the coming of Jesus at Christmas.
