Our activity today was watching an animated film of Jesus’ birth.  We have been reading about the birth of Jesus during our morning devotions, and Matthew has a very clear understanding of all the events surrounding Jesus’ birth.  When King Herod first appeared in the video, Matthew shrunk back in fear for he knew what he was about to do, which was to slaughter all boys two years and under.  I reminded him that even though this atrocious event took place, Jesus still reigns and lives.

Here are the children watching the video:
