Got Fruit - You'll love these pairs!

We asked The Urban Alternative family to share some of the activities and traditions they do with their families during Christmas to focus their hearts and minds on Jesus in the midst of a busy season—and you delivered.

We come from all around the world, from different backgrounds and experiences, but one thing unites us all: our love for Jesus. Enjoy this virtual album, full of Christ-centered holiday traditions from the TUA family, and be encouraged. You may just find a new tradition of your own to try out this year.

Family Breakfast - Christmas Morning There are a total of 50 family members, which include parents, siblings and grand/great-grand children. This has been our tradition for the past 40 years. We started this because my brother was a fire-fighter and he always worked on Christmas Day. The event would start at 5 a.m.
