Christmas Scripture Tradition

A Family Christmas Scripture Tradition

Beginning on the first day of December, read one scripture 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.

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for to put into the mini muffin tin Advent Calendar I just made. I think this will help the Christmas Spirit in our home. Thank you!
