AN OUT-OF-THE-BOX CHRISTMAS

     On December 22nd at 6pm, after just eight practices, a cast of thirty-four kids, ranging in ages from 3 to 17, came together to present a musical to a packed house of family and friends. The traditional costumes were missing, so the story was told by some very unlikely characters. Western wisemen, who wrangled up some unique gifts for the King including  a  pair  of  boots,  a  hat,  and  a  lasso. Treasure-seeking  shepherds,  who  were  searching  for  the  greatest treasure  of  all.  Spirit-filled  angels,  who cheered  the  shepherds  on  along  their  journey  and  shared  the  great  joy  of Jesus’ birth. And, let’s not forget the Superhero angel, Gabriel who reminded us all to “Have no fear, the savior is here!”  But  wait, people  won’t  understand  the  Christmas  story  if  we  don’t have  the right  costumes...will  they? Cowboys,  pirates,  and cheerleaders,  oh  my! It wasn’t like any other Christmas pageant ever, but you never know what our great big God will do to reach someone with His love. The presentation was certainly “Out-of-the-Box”, but the heart of the message was clear...Good News, Great Joy, Christ is Born! Merry Christmas and Glory to God in the Highest!
