Christmas Pageant: Back to Go Forward
December 18, 2022 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
During the Christmas season, we hold together a past story of God’s love incarnate with the present moment of our day—and our call to follow the Prince of Peace. Even in scripture, the message of Jesus’ birth invites us to do some “time traveling”—through the words of many prophets, the anointing of an unlikely king, a family tree filled with surprising characters, the appearance of angels, and a long journey to Bethlehem.
On Sunday, December 18, 10 am, kids of all ages will guide us in a re-telling of this special story that transcends time and space, so that we might see that the babe born in a Bethlehem manger is also God-with-Us, too. Once more, our script has been written by the Rev. Ashley DeTar Birt. All participants should arrive by 9:30 am, to get costumes on and prepare for the pageant.
Join us after the Pageant for a Hot Chocolate Reception in the McKelvey Room! Sign up to bring a breakfast bread to share (sliced and ready to serve) by emailing Sara Hackett.
Pageant Rehearsal
Pageant rehearsal will be held on Saturday, December 17, 9:30–11 am. Children should arrive between 9:30–10 am, and go to their Church School classrooms to put on their costumes. Middle school youth should arrive at 9:30 am, and report to the Sanctuary to practice their speaking parts.
