Summary
"For hundreds of years Candle Love Feast has been a much loved part of the Moravian Christmas celebration. This love feast is a simple and beautiful service held on Christams Eve in honor of the Birthday of the baby Jesus. Candle Love Feast is held especially for children on the afternoon of Christmas Eve and even the babies are welcome." [dust jacket]
"A boy had to ride sometimes, or he would burst in pieces! Twelve-year-old Dirk, a son of the plain people, dearly loved his family and would not have traded shoes with any city boy. But, still, the ways of his people were so -this way exactly and no other way! It was hard to want to ride a horse so badly he 'could taste it,' and to have to forego the pleasure because 'a horse is to work.'" [book jacket]
