Creative Idea for the Week
Many congregations spend Sunday School time in the weeks leading up to Christmas in the rehearsal and performance of an annual Christmas Program. But every congregation is different. This bonus lesson on the Christmas Story is meant to be used wherever it fits best into the local Church's calendar.
