/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Catholics, Protestants and a part of Orthodox
faithful across the globe are celebrating Christmas on December 25.
About 2000 years ago God sent an angel to Israel, to a virgin named
Mary. She was engaged to Joseph, a carpenter. The angel told Mary
that by God's power, she would conceive and bear a son.
When Joseph learned that she was pregnant, an angel instructed him
to marry her. Joseph took her to Bethlehem to register for a census.
While there, Mary gave birth to Jesus. She laid him in a manger because
there was no room at the inn. Shepherds visited Jesus in Bethlehem.
Later, wise men brought gifts to Jesus. They told Herod the Great,
a wicked king, that Jesus would rule Israel. So Herod sent soldiers
to kill the children in Bethlehem. Warned by an angel, Joseph took
his family to Egypt. After Herod died, they returned to Israel and
raised Jesus in a town called Nazareth.
