It is important for people to be able to relate to Jesus as being like themselves. Jesus sees people as believers or non-believers. God created everyone equal with a soul and a free will. It is up to each person whether or not they accept His gift of salvation. Skin color does not matter. Nativities with African-American figures are hard to find. So, Carole gets excited when she finds figures of different ethnicities.

| These are African American children dressed up for a nativity pageant. Some of the figures refused to stand on their own, so Carole embedded them in clay. |

| Think this came from a dollalr store |

| Larger heavy resin nativity |

| The base for this nativity has cutouts for each of the figures-the easiest place to see this is the lamb. |
