House of Bishops - The Next Generation

We celebrated St. Nicholas' Day Wednesday evening. We talked about how, unlike Santa Claus, whom no one ever really sees, St. Nicholas was real person that folks knew and talked to, a very long time ago-- a follower of Jesus, and a bishop of the church who took to heart the Gospel command to give to others without waiting for credit or thanks.

We talked about bishops and the work they are called to do, helping us share God's love with one another. We discussed the symbols of a bishop's office.

By the end of our time together, this was the result.


You know, we could do worse. . .

Later: The good folks at the St. Nicholas Center have asked for and received permission to reference our adventures on their website.
