After that, I encouraged our church do do a similar project one year, except that each person developed ONE ornament on a them they'd signed up for. It made for a lovely Christmas service, putting them all on the tree together and discussing their meaning. Yours is fantastic - such a lovely heirloom.Flosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18098894367955345944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6297631190403710992.post-75310350310749974482011-11-30T22:42:35.708-05:002011-11-30T22:42:35.708-05:00I have never decorated a Jesse tree though a frien...I have never decorated a Jesse tree though a friend showed me hers many decades ago.
