    • 2020, Dale G. Renlund, Sherim Lait bilong Sevia long Krismas‎[1]:
      “Taim yumi kisim yumi yet long tingting i go long dispela haus sipsip long Bethlhem, ‘we God long ol aua bilong nait i bin malolo pinis antap long gras,’ yumi luk save moa long Sevia olsem wanpela presen i kam long Papa long Heven husat i pulap long lav.”
      When we take ourselves to that sheep barn in Bethlehem, 'where God in the hours of the night rested upon the grass,' we see the Savior better as a gift from a loving Heavenly Father.
