Okay friends, I have a confession to make. Santa doesn’t come to my family’s house. Well, at least not on Christmas day. No, we think Santa is special enough to have his very own day! December 6th. It’s the first thing my family changed when we started to revive our Advent season. After reading Gertrud Mueller Nelson’s book “To Dance with God” I fell in love with St. Nicholas, AKA, Santa Clause. St. Nick is a type of Christ. If you use him properly he can point wonderfully to Christ on Christmas. Much like John the Baptist did for Christ on Easter. If you want to know more about Santa Clause here is a site called, St. Nicholas Center: discovering the truth about Santa Claus, that Gertrud Mueller Nelson herself directed me to. Ms. Nelson said she has a play about the very same story I'm going to share in my next post on this site. Of course you should read Gertrud Mueller Nelson’s book. It is very inspiring.
Warmly!
Kristen
