The story teaches us that the Savior came into the world for the salvation of all people. Just as the Wise Men came to Bethlehem to see the Savior and honor Him, so we come to church to see the Savior in His Word and Sacraments. With these gifts, He both honors and blesses us. Discuss how in our sin we are like Herod and do not want to worship Jesus. Talk about the details of the story and see how they compare with “tradition.” BLANKET DAYS: Ladies gather your sewing supplies together as we plan to work on blankets towards the end of the month. We will work all day long so please bring a sack lunch. If you want to work ahead, there are some blankets already pieced together that just need to be sewn in the LWML Room. If you have any questions please contact Carolyn Nowatka.
