Advent 2021 - Jesse Tree Week One
My family has slowly been growing the tradition of a Jesse Tree. One of my favorite advent traditions that focuses on our need for a Savior is a liturgy we can practice together. This is a simple practice that has many resources if you do a quick search. This list is not like many others I find now and honestly, I don’t remember why I decided to go with it. The benefit is that you walk with your family through man’s need for redemption until redemption comes!
I found a chart a few years ago and can not find it again, thus no credit is given. I have added the passages from Egermeier’s Bible Story Book and will add details as the season progresses. I bought a new Jesse Tree that was much nicer than our last one as it was lost in the move. However, in years past we just put the ornaments on the regular Christmas tree.
I made ornaments with Sculpey clay and a martini pick, but if it’s your first year, start small. I’ll post instructions soon on how I did it, but realized this is a little late in coming and wanted to get it up. Blessings on your time celebrating as a family!
