Some significant players in the Christmas story and why?

Mary:  Risk her engagement to Joseph and public shame to fulfill the scripture about Jesus being born of a virgin.

Joseph: He did not divorce his wife Mary after learning of her pregnancy, but believed the angel that this was of God.

John the Baptist: He leapt in his mother’s womb as a confirmation that she was indeed carrying the Savior of the world

The Innkeeper: He gave Mary and Joseph all that he had- a room instead of turning them away.

The Shepherds: They left their sheep and went with haste to find and worship baby Jesus as soon as the angels announced his birth.

The Wisemen: They saw the same star that the shepherds did. Instead of debating what they saw or waste time deciding how to act, their obedience was immediate.

You: Spreading the good news of Jesus’s birth giving hope to everyone
In His Service,
Vilma
