During Jesus Time, we briefly talked about the Old Testament vs. the New Testament and learned that the New Testament begins with the birth of Jesus. We also discussed different names used for Jesus and how "Christ" is in the word Christmas.
We choose not to write “X-mas” because the “X” removes the name Christ from the word Christmas. Since Christmas is a celebration of Jesus Christ’s birth, using the full word helps keep the focus on Him and honors His name.
The OSL staff is having some extra fun this week with an ornament decorating contest, special snacks, and games.
