The Christmas Child and Alone in London

1. The Christmas Child

Miss Priscilla Parry, a passionately independent woman, lived on a farmstead and helped to raise her two nieces.

Inspired by the Biblical Christmas story, the children Rhoda and Joan had a habit of visiting their barn manger every Christmas to look for a child.

One day Rhoda mysteriously disappeared and a search began.

The Christmas Child's message is to learn to forgive especially when it is very difficult to forgive.

Luke 11:4-"And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us."

2. Alone in London

An old man living in terrible poverty finds a little girl on his doorstep, takes her in, and discovers that she's his granddaughter.

He barely has enough to live on, but he makes it do for the two of them, and is constantly delighted with the tiny child.

A street urchin becomes part of their lives, and the three of them are very happy together.

A beautiful and touching story about human kindness and love without any expectation of a reward.
