The story of Christmas began long before Mary gave birth to our Savior, Jesus, in Bethlehem. The story of Christmas—the story of God’s saving plan—began at the creation of the world.

Inspired by the Jesse Tree tradition, author Kendra Tierney’s O Come, Emmanuel roots families in the rich symbols of the Old Testament that point to the coming of Jesus Christ. For each day of December leading to Christmas, you’ll find a reading from Sacred Scripture, family-friendly reflections for the day, and a short prayer.

Experience the unfolding of God’s plan from Creation to the Patriarchs to the Prophets and beyond with O Come, Emmanuel.

And for a limited time, you’ll also receive a free download of coloring page ornaments to decorate your tree! After your daily reading from the book, your children can decorate an ornament inspired by the reflection of the day.

Order O Come, Emmanuel now and receive your free coloring pages.

    I have purchased several books in the past and pieced together the Jessie Tree because it never seemed like I could find ornaments to match the book that I had. Some of the books weren’t even Catholic. I am so very thankful that Kendra wrote this book and that the publisher designed FREE ornaments to go with it. This will make it some much easier for people wanting to make this a tradition in their home. Thank you!!
