The Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary by Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich

13. THE ANGEL'S APPEARANCE TO THE SHEPHERDS HAS BECOME WIDESPREAD.

[November 29 ^th:] Early this morning the friendly innkeeper from the last inn, in which the Holy Family spent the night from November 22 ^nd-23 ^rd, sent a servant with presents to the cave, and in the course of the day he came himself to worship the Child. The appearance of the angels to the shepherds in the hour of Christ's Birth has made the story of the wonderful Child of the Promise known to all good folk here in the valleys, and these people have come to worship the Child whom they had sheltered unknown to themselves.
