Prayer: Heavenly Father, who came to us as a baby one night in Bethlehem, may we welcome you and share your love with careful hands. Amen Reading: Luke 2: 1-40 (Click to read text) Stop and GROW: After reading the text, discuss/ponder the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Book of Faith questions, which are part of Camp Mount Luther's GROW Time with campers. QUESTION 1: What scares, confuses, challenges, or doesn’t make sense to me in this text? QUESTION 2: What delights me in this text or is my favorite part of the story? QUESTION 3: What stories or memories does this text stir in me? QUESTION 4: What is God up to in this text? Reflection: A Little Carol Mary had a baby One night, in Bethlehem – Three wise men went to see her, Taking gifts with them. They made a special journey, Star led, from distant lands. But first to visit Mary Were the men with careful hands. God sent three quiet shepherds Before He sent the kings, For they are used to handling Little newborn things.
