Christmas Crazy

I’ve been thinking a lot about Christmas (your pastor is Christmas crazy). It would be really great if we could put together a simple program (maybe some special music, narration, or even drama and set-work, all ages and talent needed). If you’re interested in helping make this happen, please contact me a.s.a.p. We could even follow it up with a Christmas party full of fattening goodies etc. Christmas will be here before we know it…
