Yeah! I am so happy! I was worried because of course there was a time issue.
I have written this before but here is it in a nutshell again. After all, all three are totally different. Each one is special.
It's a third Advent Calendar of this kind I made for my church St. Martin's Episcopal Church, Richmond, VA. The church ladies (ECW) is going to raffle it off. I think 1 ticket is $5 or 3 tickets are $10.
Every day you choose one Chrismon to add for the day starting December 1. I think it is a German thing because I grew up with having an advent calendar every December. It's the count down to Christmas. In my childhood time of course it was just a paper one with little doors to see a picture behind.
The cross-stitched Chrismons were all stitched by my sister-in-law Jane in Windsor, England. Great big Thank-You to her!
Each Chrismon has its explanation on the back. Yes, Jesus is the reason for the season! The idea is that each family member can have a turn to pick the one for the day. May be there can be even a little discussion about the meaning of it?
And now on to the next thing on the to-do-list!!!
