She wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger, “because there was no room for them in the inn” — the King of Heaven welcomed into the world in the humblest of places, with Joseph keeping watch and Wise Men from distant lands kneeling to adore him. Eight centuries ago, Saint Francis of Assisi recreated this scene at Greccio so the faithful could kneel beside the manger themselves. From that first crèche comes every Nativity set that gathers a family around the wonder of Christmas night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Nativity reminds us that \u003cb\u003ethe God of all creation chose to enter the world as a child\u003c\/b\u003e — small enough to be cradled, close enough to be loved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFeast Day: December 25 | The Nativity of the Lord\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eRead more about \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/littledropsofwater.com\/blogs\/itsfuntobecatholicblog\/the-night-god-was-born-a-child\"\u003eThe Nativity, Saint Francis and the first crèche at Greccio, and why families gather around the manger →\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWHAT MAKES THIS SPECIAL\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis statue is hand-designed by Little Drops of Water and hand-painted in fine resin. The scene gathers the Holy Family around the manger — Mary and Joseph keeping watch over the newborn Child, with the Wise Men come from distant lands to adore him.

Saint Francis built the first crèche so the faithful could kneel beside it; every Nativity set since gathers a family around that same wonder. To set it out is to make room, year after year, for the Child who came to be loved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePERFECT FOR THE FAMILIES\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA keepsake gift for:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA family’s \u003cstrong\u003eChristmas\u003c\/strong\u003e centerpiece or first crèche\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn \u003cstrong\u003eAdvent\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003eChristmas\u003c\/strong\u003e gift for a new home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA \u003cstrong\u003ewedding\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003ehousewarming\u003c\/strong\u003e blessing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA keepsake to pass down through the \u003cstrong\u003egenerations\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA \u003cstrong\u003eBaptism\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003eChristening\u003c\/strong\u003e near Christmas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it belongs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is at home wherever a family prays — on a bedside table, a bookshelf, a desk at work, or the corner of a home altar.
