Another Straitgate Christmas Program!

As challenging as it is, the Straitgate Christmas Program always touches my heart and brings tears to my eyes.  Our class depicted the fulfillment of the prophecy of "Rachel weeping". Here are a couple of photos taken while we "quietly" waited for our turn in the narthex.

All the girls wore headbands with the star of David to show that they were the women of Isreal around Bethlehem.  Each of them has their own precious baby.












Then there was wicked Herod and his killing soldiers, along with the three-seeking-Wise Men and the star-bearer. I have no idea who the little boy with the hood on is.  He just popped in for the picture!




All the Sunday School children had practiced and learned the beautiful song by Keith and Kristyn Getty called "Jesus, Joy of the Highest Heaven", and they sang it at the end for all the parents. If you don't know that song, it is well worth listening to and reading the words!!  They really did a good job!
