Pope Francis Blesses Nativity Scene Made by Craftsmen in Guatemala

Pope Francis spends time in silent prayer Dec. 3 in front of a Nativity scene handmade by artisan craftsmen in Guatemala.

The Nativity scene was made by the combined effort of more than 30 artisans. It features the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Joseph, wearing large golden crowns, in a stable with the Baby Jesus surrounded by angels.
