The Advent celebration of the Jesse Tree is an ancient tradition of the Church that honors the lineage of Jesus Christ. Following the most significant stories of the Old Testament, the Jesse Tree stretches its roots down through salvation history from the dawn of creation to the cold and starry night in Bethlehem that welcomed Christ the Savior. A Shoot from the Stump of Jesse takes the ancient custom of the Jesse Tree and presents it to Catholic families of today with a gentle and inviting approach. Used as a read-aloud narrative, it is a beautiful aid in drawing the entire family deeper into the true spirit of the Advent season, a time of sweet anticipation for the holy season of Christmas.
