Question: Christmas Angels Around the World: Liberia

Here's a look at some Christmas angel traditions from Liberia...

Answer:

In Liberia on Christmas morning, people wake up their loved ones by singing Christmas carols, including carols about angels and the important role they played in the Christmas story. Then they go to church for a worship service that includes people playing the roles of angels in nativity plays about what happened in Bethlehem on the first Christmas.

Liberians use angel ornaments and other types of ornaments especially bells) to decorate Christmas trees (made out of palm trees) during the Christmas season.

The night sky over Liberia lights up with fireworks on Christmas night, just as angels lit up the sky over Bethlehem when they announced that Jesus Christ had come to Earth.
