The Stations of the Nativity
Tuesday, December 16 | 2:00 PM or 7:00 PM
Prepare Your Heart for Christmas
Step into the story of Christ’s birth through The Stations of the Nativity—a beautiful and meditative devotion designed to prepare your heart for the celebration of Christmas.
Like the traditional Stations of the Cross that reflect on Jesus’s Passion, the Stations of the Nativity guide us through fourteen moments in the story of his birth. Each station invites prayer, reflection, and wonder at the mystery of the Incarnation—God made flesh for our salvation.
What to Expect
At each station, you’ll experience a rich combination of Scripture, prayer, and reflection:
- Scripture – A passage from the Bible that brings each event to life.
- Meditation – A brief reflection to help you contemplate its meaning.
- Prayer – Words to lift your heart in gratitude and hope.
- Song – A short refrain from O Come, O Come, Emmanuel.
- Reflection Questions – Invitations to connect the story to your own life and faith journey.
- Artwork – Full-color images to help you visualize and enter into the scene.
You may choose to remain in quiet prayer or move from station to station with the lector or leader guiding the devotion.
Join Us
Come and experience the Nativity story in a new and prayerful way—one that draws you deeper into the mystery of God’s love made visible at Christmas.
