| Mary seated in prayer, admires her baby, Jesus. |
"Mary, the mother. of the infant Jesus, is shown in the fifth picture to be used in making a Christmas Crib.
Color the figure, paste it on cardboard and cut it out. Because of many of the great painters of the past have painted this scene, we usually think of Mary wearing a cloak of rich deep blue over a red gown. But this is a artistic choice. Mary probably dressed in natural earth colors common to her people at the time. In either case, you may color her robes however you prefer."
One of the great Christmas hymns is "Silent Night." -
Silent night, holy night! All is calm, all is bright
'Round yon Virgin Mother and Child. Holy infant so
tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace, sleep in heavenly peace.
