Joseph watches over Mary and the baby, Jesus. |
This is Joseph, the fourth figure for your Christmas crib, or creche. He was a humble man, a carpenter, (actually a stone mason) so his clothing is plain.
Color the picture, paste it on cardboard and cut it out. He wears a dark mantle over a gray robe. But his sash is colorful, you could make it red or green. And the straw peeping out from under his robe is yellow.
The center of the base folds forward, the outer ends fold back to make it stand. Add this picture to the three figures you have already saved.
One of our best-loved Christmas songs tell us:
Oh, come all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant,
Oh come ye, oh come ye to Bethlehem:
Come and behold him, born the King of Angels,
Oh, come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.
