A strange, sad thing has happened in the Universe. It was rumored that evil had left a stain on one small planet. Even the wisest stars in the celestial choirs could not imagine what their Composer-Conductor would do. But in the fulness of time, He told them He would go to the wounded planet Himself. But when He told them He would also bring little Lumen, they marveled. He had a special task for her. Would this very young star be able to live up to her Creators expectations?

The beautiful story of LUMEN has been a Christmas Eve tradition for our family for many years. With the fireside reading of the Christmas story from the Bible and LUMEN, we usher in the true meaning of Christmas. Yet, LUMEN is more than a Christmas story. It is a precious reminder that our Creator formed each one of us with purpose and knows us by name. I have read this book to adult and childrens groups and it never fails to connect and touch their hearts, no matter what the age. I hope LUMEN will become a new annual tradition for you as well, but may the message stay in your hearts all year round.
