Moravian Star Ornament-Small
$15.00
Originating in the Moravian boarding schools in Germany in the nineteenth century as an exercise in geometry, the stars were carried throughout the world by missionaries and other church workers. Now, from the Himalayas to the Caribbean, the star proclaims the hope of Advent. The star reminds us of God, who caused the light to shine out of darkness and of the light which is the life of humanity. Today, the star is a reminder of hope and of the many ways in which the love of God can help and heal. It is a symbol of the light of life, steeped in history and radiating with faith. Great for holiday gifting, a festive ornament exchange, stocking stuffer, and decorating your Christmas tree!
