Christmas... in the News: Black Bear Joins Christmas Parade, New Yorker's Ornaments Featured in White House Display & Giant Christmas Tree in Bethlehem

 


Welcome to this edition of Christmas... in the news. This is a review of Christmas articles and news over the last week.

How are your holiday plans going? Mine are slowly coming together, but if I don't get a day off pretty soon, the decorations might never make their way up.  Not really, because I always get it together. That's what makes a mom's magic so special. 

We are only 18 days away from Christmas. Gosh, that sure crept up fast. Let's check out some of the latest bits of Christmas news.

What would you do if a black bear wandered into your Christmas parade? Well, that's exactly what happened today in Tennessee. Check out this video on NBC News by clicking here

WIVB out of Buffalo reported that a man from Lancaster has dozens of his ornament designs on display at the White House. You can read more of Brandon Koblich's story here

Finally, we come to a story that takes place in the town where Jesus was born. Due to the ongoing war in Gaza, no Christmas lights have been lit since 2022. As reported in The Independent, with the ceasefire in its second month, a giant lit Christmas tree now stands in Bethlehem. You can read more here

There is always tons of Christmas news this time of year. I hope you find those bright moments as you celebrate the holiday season.
