So sorry I got behind on my Jesse Tree. I am going to include the outline for the rest of the days til Christmas.
Please pray for my daughter. She will be having surgery on Tuesday to remove cervical cancer. Please pray for her complete healing and her fertility (she is 20).
Please pray for all of our family to trust in God without reservation.
Blessings to you and yours this Christmas.
In Christ,
Soutenus
ps) There are a few scheduled drafts set to post so I do have some new things ready to share.
On December 17, the Church begins to intensify the preparation for Christmas with the use of the "O" Antiphons during the Liturgy of the Hours. The symbols for the Jesse Tree from December 17 to 23 are based on the "O" Antiphons.

December 19 Jesus is Flower of Jesse: Isaiah 11:1-3 Symbols: flower, plant with flower
