At one point in our lives, we were very active in a church near where we live.....and another lady "M" and I were in charge of the church's Christmas Gift to the area. It was a "Living Christmas". The entire Christmas story was told from prophecy to the birth. Visitors were led by a host to various locations within the church building where people dressed in clothing appropriate to the Christmas story told their part in the story using the Bible as their text. There was Gabriel the angel, the Shepherds, the Wise Men, Mary sang "Mary's Song" which was so awesome. After her song, visitors left the building and followed luminaries to the stable scene with live animals. M and I wrote the script, cast the characters, arranged for costuming and directed the production. It was attended by hundreds. Everyone who attended was very moved by what they had witnessed. When I think back on it, it was quite an undertaking, but I loved challenges. After I "departed", this event ceased to exist......................... It was a ministry which I was proud to have been a "part of".
