For 12 years now Walk Through Bethlehem has been a part of our Christmas season. WTB 2006 finished last Sunday with over 5,000 people walking through the city. Michael and I were guides again, Nathan worked the fish booth and Olivia worked in the basket and fruit booth and participated in the children's choir. Walk Through Bethlehem holds a very special place in our hearts!
And in that region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with fear. And the angel said to them, "Be not afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy which will come to all the people; for to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a babe wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger." Matthew 2:8-12
Girl Scout Troop 796 took a trip to the Ronald McDonald House in Orlando and shared gift bags they had prepared to help with needed supplies for the guests that stay their while they have loved ones in the hospital. The girls shared their voices as well as they sang Christmas carols for the guests. Afterwards they enjoyed pizza and a gift exchange. (thanks Amy for the picture!)
Happy 15th Birthday Nate! Hope you have a Great day! We love you and are so proud of you. Enjoy your day!
