The First Christmas Two thousand years ago, in the small village of Nazareth, an angel appears to a young woman to bring her the good news that God had chosen her to give birth to a very special baby. Her name was Mary, the angel’s name was Gabriel, and the special baby was the Son of God! Mary was soon to be married to a young man named Joseph, a carpenter. But at the time when Mary was about to give birth to the baby, the Roman emperor, Caesar Augustus, sent out an edict saying that everyone in the Roman empire was to return to their home town registering and paying taxes. So Mary and Joseph travelled South to the small town of Bethlehem where Mary’s little baby was soon to be born. After looking for a place to stay for the night and unable to find a room, one innkeeper told them they could stay in a stable where Mary gave birth to her little baby boy, Jesus. At that time, angels appeared to a group of shepherds watching their flock of sheep, and told them of the wonderful news that a savior was born into the world. You can read this wonderful true story in your Bible in Luke chapters 1 and 2.
