Of all people for the angels to tell about the birth of Jesus, who would've thought they would go straight to a group of shepherds?! But that's exactly what happened! The shepherds were in the middle of watching their sheep during the night when, suddenly, a group of angels appeared and told them that Jesus had been born. The shepherds had never been more terrified! But the angels told them not to be afraid and to go find Jesus in Bethlehem. As soon as the angels left, the shepherds went straight there. They wanted to see this for themselves! When they arrived at the stable, they saw Mary, Joseph, and Jesus. The shepherds knew Jesus was a very special baby, and they worshipped him. When they left, they were so excited that they told everyone they saw about Jesus! They just couldn't keep this good news to themselves!
Read it in the Bible in: Luke 2:8-20
