Christmas Countdown with Scripture Cards

Counting down with scriptures is one of my favorite ways to keep this special holiday Christ-centered. This instant download includes 25 scripture cards to countdown to Christmas. Each card features a simple watercolor, festive wreath on the front with numbers 1-25. The back of each card includes a scripture reading. It’s a great way to incorporate scripture this Christmas season.

Simply print out the free printable Christmas countdown calendar with books already filled in for each day, read the book, and mark off the day.
