We are so glad you are back to hear the second chapter of the tale of Saint Nicholas! This episode, we unpack the beloved story of how the Bishop of Myra sacrificed his own fortune to save three young girls from the blight of poverty. We couldn't help but set this scene in a Christmas-y light and hope you enjoy reveling in songs of glad tidings and snowy, joyful expectation of the Christ Child with us!
*Important Note to Parents*
We did our best to be mindful of different families' teachings and traditions at Christmastime. Our presentation of Saint Nicholas is true to his legacy of virtue and holiness and he remains a distinct figure from any in today's secular representations. That being said, one character in our version of this story, named 'Kris Kringle,' does allude to the idea of a modern 'Santa Claus' but is never called so by name. By avoiding any explicit reference, we hope this telling can appeal to families over a range of practices this season. Above all, our aim was to encourage children to model the very real Saints of our Church and conform their lives to Christ; we hope that this message over any other shines brightest in this production!
