Advent - Week 2 {FAITH} - Sunday 12/9/2018

In preparation for the 2nd week of Advent, where we are anticipating the birth of Christ, I thought this prayer was a great way to start the festivities with our littles...



This week we light the candle of FAITH, which reminds us of the faithful journey Mary and Joseph made to Bethlehem. Here are the resources I am using iwth our littles this weekend.

First, we will color the Journey to Bethlehem sheet below, and paste it into our Bible Journals as well as dicuss faith and what it means.

However, today, Saturday, Dec. 8th is the Holy Day of Obligation so my littles and I are also going to have color a Saint Mary coloring sheet and cut/paste this into our Bible Journals as well. https://www.scribd.com/doc/8665160/Immaculate-Conception 



Some background information ...
Question:What is the Immaculate Conception? If one does the math, Jesus surely wasn't conceived just 3 weeks before his birth...
Answer: The Immaculate Conception refers to the condition that the Blessed Virgin Mary was free from Original Sin from the very moment of her conception in the womb of her mother, Saint Anne. We celebrate the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary on September 8; nine months before is December 8, the Feast of the Immaculate Conception.
