The Nativity Scene is about 4 inches tall and 3½ wide. The Gloria Angel is guarding the Special Family as she hovers above them. She is suspended at the peak of a stone arch that has palms and ferns growing out of the cracks. Mary is kneeling and Joseph is standing as they look very tenderly at the Baby. There are two small lambs enjoying the scene as well. Select this link to view our Nativity Ornaments.

The Wooden Church Crusade
When Germany was divided after World War ll, Baron Henning Von Royk-Lewinski and Richard Kinzer, the former president of Burlington Mills, founded the Wooden Church Crusade, a charitable organization established to build churches in war torn areas of West Germany. It was their goal to build as many churches as there were American States at that time and when completed their efforts resulted in more than 25 churches being built. They wanted the ringing of the bells in these churches to be a reminder to everyone in the Western communities that with God came peace, and the bells would also toll loudly enough to give those across the Eastern border hope for such peace. Every church has become a symbol for the solidarity between the United States of America and former Western Germany in the fight against communism and the fight for peace.
