Description

Imagine what it would be like to be walking in the woods on a winter evening and to discover a lighted pine tree glowing in woods. Its jagged branches are covered with snow which reflects the lights. The sky is still pink from the setting sun which gives the forest and snow an indigo light. What fun it would be to make this Discovery!

A lighted tree symbolizes the birth of Jesus and the celebration of Christmas. The lighted star at the top symbolizes the Star that led so many visitors to his birthplace. Tree lighting ceremonies continue to be an integral part of the Christmas season.
