Merry Christmas!!

This week we continue our Christmas journey with Mary and Joseph taking their long journey to Bethlehem.

The Beginners Bible

The Most Special Baby

Now Mary loved a man named Joseph.

They were going to get married.

One day Joseph had to take a trip to the city of Bethlehem.

So Mary went with him.

The city of Bethlehem was crowded. 

Many people had come there.

Joseph and Mary looked for a place to stay.

But there was no room in any house.

All the beds were full.

People were even sleeping on the floor.

So Joseph and Mary had to stay in a stable

where the donkeys and horses stayed.
