Christmas Savior Reading Chart

WE ARE SOOOO DOING THIS! We started tonight, and I can already tell we are going to refresh on our stories of Christ and make this a December to remember!
~Beginning on the first day of December, read one scripture passage a day with your family.  Consider  using your family’s talents by adding special musical numbers and singing together.  When Christmas arrives you will find you have begun a new family tradition that will increase your knowledge of the Savior.  Continue your scripture reading time together each day throughout the year to further strengthen the bonds of your family.
