NARRATOR: In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken,
and everyone went to their own town to register. So Joseph went to Bethlehem to register with
Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there,
she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger,
because there was no room for them at the inn. (from Luke 2)
