Our church had a lovely Candlelight Service around Christmas time, and we all enjoyed it so much. It was a perfect time to stop and savor everything Christmas is all about-Jesus coming to earth, and the love and joy He brings to our lives today. There is something about candlelight, too, that gives an extra awe to the heart in the midst of the celebration.
Once again, Chels dressed up in her maid outfit (from the Christmas Play) and lit a candle as soft music played at the beginning of the service.
Mr. Christmas came down out of the ceiling surrounded by falling snow...........

...............then made his way to the stage, where he read aloud the timeless Christmas story.
The evening was filled with music!
Our family played several instrumental pieces.
Our pastor's wife and her parents sang a beautiful song about "home for Christmas".
Of course there was preaching to encourage and challenge our hearts.
We had little electric candles to give us light to read the Word.
The children gathered round the tree to help distribute.......
........small Christmas presents for everyone!
"Joy to the world, the Lord is come."
