Jesse Tree Printable Advent Activity Set

The Jesse Tree is an Advent activity that traces the story of Jesus’ lineage and God’s plan for salvation from the very beginning. Each day of December, families read a Bible story that points to the coming of Christ. This tradition is named after Jesse, the father of King David, from whom Jesus descended. Isaiah 11:1 prophesies, “There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse, and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit,” foretelling the coming of Jesus. Using a Jesse Tree, you and your children can journey through the Bible and discover how each story from Creation to Christmas points to Jesus. For each story, a symbol is added to the Jesse Tree, representing key moments or people in salvation history. It’s a wonderful, hands-on way to prepare young hearts for the celebration of Christ's birth.  Includes: 25 display cards with verses- approximately 3.5"x5" each  Full color + black and white (for you to color!) ornament templates- 2.5" round each  Jesse Tree Coloring Book wi
