a monk and a fir tree

The Story of the 1st Christmas Tree!

During a walk in a beautiful forest of
fir trees shining in star light
a humble monk, Martin Luther,
was so touched by God’s love
that he cut down
a fir tree and took it home decorating
it with candles, showing his children

how it symbolized the ‘Star of Bethlehem’
leading the Wise Men to celebrate
the birth of Jesus.

Martin Luther
The great Protestand Reformer
November 1483 to To February 1546
