This year we started the Christmas season off by doing a FHE lesson about the importance of giving during the Christmas season. We talked about when we serve and lift others we are actually giving gifts to Jesus. We started with an empty tree and every time we did an act of service we would put an ornament of our giving tree. The kids really had fun with this and they were looking for opportunities to earn their ornament. I think this will have to be a Christmas tradition in our home it really helped us remember the reason for the season. Merry Christmas!!!
