“The Wondrous Nativity,” Friend, Dec. 2008, 24–25, 28
The Wondrous Nativity
To help remind you and your family of the wondrous story of Jesus Christ’s birth (see Matthew 2:1–12; Luke 2:1–20), make this nativity scene. Then display it where others can enjoy seeing it during the Christmas season.
-
Glue pages 24–25 and 28 to heavy paper.
-
Cut out the scenes. On the largest scene cut the slits, as shown by the heavy black lines.
-
Fold the largest scene along the dotted lines so it will stand up and the roof will fold down.
-
Slide the slits of the baby Jesus scene into the largest scene’s slits as illustrated. Then add the other two scenes as illustrated.
