------------------------------------------------------------------------ St. Francis of Assisi is credited with creating the first nativity scene in 1223 at Greccio, Italy, in an attempt to place the emphasis of Christmas upon the worship of Christ rather than upon secular materialism and gift giving. Staged in a cave near Greccio, St. Francis' nativity scene was a living one with humans and animals cast in the Biblical roles. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nativity_scene ----- Original Message ---- > From: MD <mmdme...@gmail.com> > To: goanet@lists.goanet.org > Sent: Fri, 11 December, 2009 5:52:33 PM > Subject: [Goanet] God and You > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Photos from Goa's 2009 mando festival: > http://www.flickr.com/photos/fn-goa/sets/72157622843319441/ > Event on Wed, Thurs evening from 5 pm onwards, Kala Academy, Panaji-Goa > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > During the Christmas time, we have the custom of making/preparing(or > whatever) a crib > where in we display the new born Jesus with his worldly parents, Mary > included.
