Room for a Little One


Room for a Little One
One cold winter's night, in his stable, Kind Ox welcomes animals looking for warmth and shelter with the call, 'come inside. There's always room for a little one here'.

Then Tired Donkey arrives, led by Joseph and carrying Mary on his back. Kind Ox calls to Tired Donkey, 'Come inside. There's always room for a little one here'. And later that night, in the light of the stable, the animals welcome Jesus to the world.
