We’re sure you’ll be impressed by how innovative the artists were when carving them and adding hinges so that you can close it up and store it away safely until next Christmas. This Manger Scene is our Christmas gift to you.Įach one is a hand carved relief sculpture of the Holy Family carved from a single piece of wood with the bark still intact, a unique item from Kenya that will surely compliment, if not be the highlight, of your Christmas decorations.
To the billions who live so simply, we wish you a very blessed Christmas! We know God shines his light on you in a special way. We know that the poor understand hardship and fortitude in ways we never will, and we honor their position on the world stage.
We have been privileged to enter countless traditional homes in Ethiopia and Kenya to meet families living similarly to the setting in which Jesus was born-mud walls and thatched roofs, families sharing space and warmth with animals, a thick bed of straw for comfort, houses devoid of running water for cooking or cleaning, no electricity for light, nor any of the comforts we consider essential. Every year when Christmas comes, we relate to this manger Nativity scene.
