Christmas Cross-Section

A small group of us met at the Salvation Army Hall in Frogmore last night to celebrate Christmas and really get to grips with the story. The young people were invited to journey through the story and putting themselves in the shoes of Zachariah, Mary, Joseph, the Shepherds and the Wise Men by inteacting with various Angels, the Inn Keeper and King Herod.

It was really interesting to be able to walk our way through the story and try to imagine what it must have been like to be these character that we know so well. The story really came alive and we were able to think all about the positions that each character found themselves in.

We concluded the evening with Carols, led by the worship group from Paul's church in Slough, and a retelling of the story - basically an unconventional lessons and carols combination!
