When the angels went back to heaven, the shepherds looked at each other. “Let's go to Bethlehem and see this!”
They hurried into town and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby lying in the manger, just like the angel said.
Then the shepherds told everyone what the angel had said about this child. People were amazed! Mary kept all these things in her heart. The shepherds went back to their sheep, praising God all the way.
