Day 247: St. Margaret's nativity scene

"Christmas renews our youth by stirring our wonder. The capacity for wonder has been called our most pregnant human faculty, for in it are born our art, our science, our religion" - Ralph W Sockman



Project 365: # 247

I was so excited to receive a photo this morning of one of the resurrected Christmas scenes at St. Margaret's that Ft. Dunn and his artistic helpers beautifully created many years ago. It is so nice to see it being used again after all that hard work, and all those years being tucked away in the storeroom, to the glory of God! Christmas really does stir a youthful wonder in us, inspiring us to pursue our callings and what we really love. I think it is the promised grace of God that gives us hope each year to fulfill the promises of a better life. The  capacity  of wonder  brings art, creativity, science, and religion alive, giving meaning to our faith!
