Last Call: Jesse Tree Kits

We all know what a family tree is, and the Jesse Tree is a symbol that helps us trace the ancestry of Jesus.  For each of the first twenty five days of December, we choose a Scriptural passage highlighting one of the major events or figures of the Old Testament.  The family comes together to read the passage, say a brief prayer, and hang an ornament on the Jesse tree to remind us of this passage.

Saint James School’s Catholic Identity Committee will be assembling Jesse Tree kits for our SJS families to participate in at home.

Each kit will include:
-list of readings
-daily prayer
-materials to make ornaments
-suggestions for symbols

*You will need a Bible, “tree”, scissors, and coloring supplies

If your family would like a kit please sign up using THIS LINK by Monday, November 21, 2022.

Kits will be distributed the week after Thanksgiving.
