Nativity Scene

Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Jesus. The word nativity comes from the latin word ‘natal’ which means birth.

In the days when Herod was king of Judea, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth in Galilee to announce to a virgin named Mary, who was betrothed to a man named Joseph, that a child would be born to her and she was to name him Jesus, for he would be the son of God and rule over Israel forever.
