I love it when my friend, Pat Maier, gets to spend time in my studio. She spent some time coloring the Jesse Tree ornaments for the Jesse Tree devotions on the Visual Faith Ministry website. Found HERE: jesse-tree-devotional-booklet-part-2-by-matyas-helmreich 24 Ornaments that tie together the Old Testament prophecies to the New Testament fulfillment. Jesse Trees are an old Christmas tradition that date back to medieval times. The name comes from Jesse- who was the the father of the great Jewish King David. It connects the verses of Isaiah 11:1-4. "A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse, from his roots a branch will bear fruit..." The Jesse trees were often large tapestries or they could be stained glass and they were use to teach an illiterate culture the Christmas story. While our world certainly has heard of Christmas, and perhaps the baby Jesus, the symbols still teach the connections to the REAL Gift of Christmas. This might be a new tradition for you- but one to consider adding to your Advent celebration.
