MARY AND JOSEPH

Two thousand years ago, the emperor Augustus wanted to count the people in his land. He told everyone to go back to the city where they had been born.

Joseph and Mary lived in Nazareth. Mary was going to have a baby. But they had to go to Bethlehem because Joseph had been born there. It was a long, long trip.

IN BETHLEHEM

When they got to Bethlehem, the time came to baby to be born. But there was no room for them to stay at the inn.

JESUS

Joseph and Mary went to the stable. Mary’s baby was born. They named him JESUS. Mary made a bed for the baby in a manger.

SHEPHERDS AND AN ANGEL

There were shepherds out in the fields. They were watching their sheep.

An angel came to speak to the shepherds. The shepherds were afraid.

“ Don’t be afraid,” said the angel. “I bring you good news. Today in the town of Bethlehem, a baby has been born. This baby is Christ the Lord. You will find him in a manger.”

A BRIGHT STAR IN THE SKY

A bright star appeared in the sky. Wise men saw the star in the East.

” A new king is born,’’ they said.

” Let’s go to see him. Let’s bring him gifts.”

The wise men followed the star. The star went ahead of them. It stopped over the place where the baby Jesus was born.

THE NEWBORN KING

The shepherds went to Bethlehem. They found Mary and Joseph in the stable. They saw the baby in the manger. They were very happy.

THE FIRST CHRISTMAS

The wise men saw the child with his mother. They bowed down.

” We have come to see the newborn king”, they said.

They gave him gold, frankincense and myrrh.

This was the first Christmas.
