Oh Little Town of Bethlehem

On our field trip today we went to the place of our Savior's birth. I didn't realize how close Bethlehem was to Jerusalem before this semester, but they are only a few miles apart. We went to a few churches commemorating where Christ was born or where the shepherds might have been which were all neat. But the best part of the day was when we went to a secluded field overlooking Bethlehem , sang Christmas songs, and shared our testimonies of the Savior of the world. Being in Jerusalem and seeing the Holy Sites is incredible, but it's nice to know that I don't need to be at the exact place the Savior was to feel the Spirit.
