Christmas for KidsSample

Imagine you picked out the perfect Christmas gift for someone. You wrap it up and then—you wait. 

You will feel excited when they finally open it!

Christmas is a celebration of the special gift God has for us! 

That gift is forgiveness and being close to God. When we turn from sin and choose to follow Jesus, we open that gift!

God is waiting for us to open that gift. When we do, He is so excited! God and all of heaven’s angels will celebrate!
