Creative Idea for the Week
The Season of Advent: Many congregations use the weeks just prior to Christmas as an opportunity to practice and/or perform their annual Sunday School Christmas program. In these weeks, others schedule Christmas parties or caroling events. The majority of churches do not have normal class sessions in the weeks just prior to Christmas. However, since local traditions vary so widely, we have offered this bonus lesson for those congregations that need an extra class session in this season.
