An angel appeared to them and told them not to be frightened. A baby had been born in Bethlehem who would be the Messiah! The shepherds were filled with joy and went to see baby Jesus, telling Joseph and Mary what the angel had said to them.
- In a land far away to the east, three wise men who studied the stars saw a bright star in the sky that they had never seen before. They believed it could mean that a great new leader had been born. They followed the bright star all the way to Bethlehem where they met baby Jesus, bowing down to worship him. To honor the child, they gave Jesus precious gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

Today, Christians celebrate Jesus' birth on Christmas every year on December 25th.
