This Week's Ministry Message
Children’s Pageant
You’re invited to our cherished Annual Children’s Christmas Pageant, Sing A Song of Christmas: A Simple Christmas Musical for Kids, taking place during the worship service on Sunday, December 21st.
Join us as the Baker children and youth bring the Nativity story to life! This simple musical, created by Ed Kee and Rhonda Frazier, features beloved Christmas carols, costumes, and a simple set. Narrators will guide the congregation through the story of Mary, Joseph, shepherds, angels, and the wise men.
There is still time for children and teens to join us! Rehearsals are scheduled for Sunday mornings during Sunday School, with a final mandatory rehearsal on Saturday, December 20th, at 10am.
Please invite your family, friends, and neighbors to join us for this special worship service on December 21st. The performance will be followed by a reception in Baker Hall. We look forward to celebrating the magic and the true meaning of Christmas with you.
We are also in need of adult volunteers or parents to assist with costumes, set preparation, and helping shepherd the children during Saturday’s rehearsals and the morning before the performance. If you are interested in lending a hand and contributing to the success of this beautiful tradition, please contact Shelly in the church office ASAP. Your support helps bring the wonder of the Christmas story to our congregation.
As the children, youth, rehearsal leaders, and family members continue practicing, please keep their health in your prayers. Pray that their hearts will be prepared to share the joy of Christ’s birth. Bringing the wonder and magic of the Christmas story to our congregation is made possible through your support and prayers.
Christmas Blessings,
Shelly Stienbarger
Director of Children & Family Ministries
