There is a story of the first Christmas in both Matthew's Gospel and in Luke's Gospel.

The birth of Jesus - Matthew's Gospel

Joseph was espoused to Mary, but had respected her virginity. When she was found to be pregnant, he thought of putting her away out of the public eye but an angel told Joseph in a dream that the baby was conceived of the Holy Ghost.


When Jesus was born, Magi came following a star from the east to see the new Messiah, whom they found in a house in Bethlehem. They fell down and worshipped Jesus and gave him gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. But King Herod was afraid that Jesus would become king in his place, so Jesus and his family fled immediately to Egypt, while Herod had all the infants killed in order to remove a supposed rival. After Herod died, the family returned, but were warned by God to turn aside and travel on to Nazareth in Galilee.


The birth of Jesus - Luke's Gospel

An angel came to Mary in the city of Nazareth and told her she would bear a son, Jesus. Later, when Mary was heavily pregnant, she and Joseph travelled from Nazareth to Bethlehem to take part in a census.


Because there was nowhere else to stay in Bethlehem, they stayed in a stable, where Jesus was born. After angels appeared to shepherds in the fields, telling them about the birth, the shepherds came to Bethlehem to see Jesus. Shortly afterwards, the family travelled to Jerusalem to go to the Temple, and then they returned peacefully to their home in Nazareth.
