December 24 - Childhood of Jesus Christ

Childhood of Jesus Christ

Jesus grew up in Galilee in the small town of Nazareth. There he had a loving family life with Joseph; his mother, Mary; and several brothers and sisters.  His childhood was probably much like that of other boys of that time.  He learned Jewish law, did carpentry work with Joseph, studied the scriptures, and gained wisdom through prayer.

As Jesus grew, the Spirit of God was strong in him. He learned of his mission on earth and waited for the time of his baptism and ministry.
Without looking back in the story, what town did Jesus grow up in?  And, in what region is that town?
