The 2023 Annual Ornament: Heart of Christmas

An angel said to Mary, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High.” Luke 1: 30-32

Christmas is a lot of things, including a time of celebration and gatherings, but most of all Christmas is love. Love of family. Love of friendship. Love of kindness and unselfish generosity. And all because of the love of God expressed to us that day with the incredible gift of His Son, who was born to love us all. 

The Heart of Christmas is Jesus. The Heart of Christmas is love. 

The 2023 Annual Ornament is inspired by the beautiful stained glass windows in grand cathedrals. Designed by Artist Emily Hendrie and cut into metal by artist Adam Post.
