December Christmas Events

As we entered into the Christmas season different activities kept us busy proclaiming the Good News of Jesus' birth. The second week of December our church performed a Live Nativity at

Old Washington State Park. Our good friend Mr. Ford helped us out again by reading the Christmas story during each performance.

Getting everything ready.

Sound check!
