The Journey to Bethlehem
"Joseph also went up from Galilee, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem."Luke 2:4
Reflection
It was a long, tiring journey, with Mary about to give birth. God’s plan travelled on dirt roads too.
Prayer
Lord, walk with me on the hard journeys. Amen!
Talk about it as a family
- What do you think Mary and Joseph's journey was like?
- Why did they have to travel?
- What is the most tiring trip you've ever taken?
5-minute activity
Take a short walk around the house or the block carrying a light backpack, like travelers. On the way, tell the story of the trip from Nazareth to Bethlehem. Read Luke 2:1-5.
