The 12 Days of Christmas Faithbooking Challenge #4



The 12 Days of Christmas Faithbooking Challenge #4

WELCOME BACK!  If you missed verses 1-3, no worries!  You can easily catch-up (and that includes me!!). 

We've all heard this song growing up, but did you know each verse of the song also had a Biblical meaning? Over the next few weeks, we will be exploring the Biblical meanings of each verse of the song.  You can do your craft of choice, journal, scrapbook..….whatever you want to show what the verse and meaning means to you.  Each Sunday and Thursday for 6 weeks I will post the traditional verse, and its Biblical meaning. After the 6 weeks is over, you should have a beautiful reminder that you can share with your family and friends as to what the Biblical meanings are for "The 12 Days of Christmas"! (As a reminder, I found this information online at www.faith-sisters.blogspot.com and immediately knew it was the perfect accompaniment to the 6 week Christmas Experience study).  

Although participation in the 12 Days of Christmas Faithbooking Challenge isn’t necessary to be included the Expressions of Faith small group, I hope you will incorporate it somehow (crafting, journaling, scrapbooking, etc).  In a sense, it will become your testimonial of faith that will be a keepsake you will enjoy reflecting on often and sharing with others.

On the fourth day of Christmas,
my true Love sent to me
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

The "four calling birds" refers to the four evangelists who wrote the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke and John—which sing the song of salvation through Jesus Christ.


As I mentioned at the beginning, I am behind on my creations, but I have some time off next week, so I plan to catch-up J  I will post my creations as soon as I have them done.  Until then; enjoy these examples that were provided on www.faith-sisters.blogspot.com

Blessing!!
