1 Chrismons TM October 2, 2017
2 History Chrismons are ornaments that were first created in 1957 for use on the Christmas Tree of Ascension Lutheran Church in Danville, Virginia, by Mrs. Frances Kipps Spencer. The designs were monograms of and symbols for our Lord Jesus Christ. Because these designs have been used by his followers since biblical times, they are the heritage of all Christians and serve to remind each of us regardless of denomination of the One we follow. All Chrismons are made in a combination of white and gold to symbolize the purity and majesty of the Son of God and the Son of Man. 1 1 Taken from the Ascension Lutheran Church Website:
