"In our walk with God, it is important that we never lose sight of our mission: to allow God to move in me without interference on my part. And it takes a lot of dying to self."

JESSE TREE ORNAMENTS AND BOOK SET
This set of 27 Jesse Tree Ornaments will help you see and touch the Advent journey through salvation history. These ornaments are 100% designed and made in Steubenville, Ohio by Catholic families. The subjects represented for the daily Advent devotions are based on meditations from the book, The Jesse Tree: An Advent Devotion by Eric and Suzan Sammons—included with this set. This practice begins on the First Sunday of Advent and since the number of days in Advent varies from year to year, there is a handy chart included to help you know which ornament to hang on each day.
