Our elementary students joined Ferguson Church of the Nazarene for their children's Christmas program this past Sunday, entitled "Christmas Cookies". It was such a joy for everyone in attendance to watch and hear the message through drama and song that our children presented! They did a fantastic job and really brought us all more Christmas cheer. The play depicted Mr. Scrooge in modern times, joining a television show about making Christmas cookies, but most importantly they talked about the "ingredients" that truly make Christmas sweet, like cookies. Mr. Scrooge was visited by the three spirits (off stage) while our children's choir sang beautiful carols and songs about Jesus' coming to be Immanuel, God with us. By the end, Scrooge came to the realization and belief for himself that the most important ingredient, and all we truly need, is Jesus.
It really was a blessed time and a full house of love and joy together!
