Destination: Bethlehem

by Sharon Altman and Christine Winkelman

An Advent adventure to be read each night of Advent!

From Catholicspirit.com: "The story line of “Destination: Bethlehem” revolves around two young boys who live in Israel during the time of Christ’s birth — Isaac and Jediah. It describes life in Palestine and the events surrounding the birth of Jesus from their perspective. To cater to the interests of young boys, they have worked in a lot of action and a few episodes of trouble for the boys."

The authors incorporated revelations from Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich. Altman says: “I had been inspired by the writings of Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich. I had been trying to find a way to incorporate her insights and vision into an Advent story children could understand.”
