This will be on Sunday, December 21 during morning worship at 11am along with the choir’s cantata.
Some children may enjoy simply being part of the group, while others might like to have a small speaking role with a couple of lines. If your child is interested in participating, and especially if they would like a speaking part, please let me know.
