And Then There Was Light

Workin' on the Tree

Our designer - Lynn Brake

Things are going up. More will be added. Some will be rearranged, but this is how it looked in the early afternoon. It looks different now, but I didn't get a picture. More to come tomorrow.

Special Bulletin

We interupt our regularly scheduled programing for this special bulletin.


Easter is coming!


January 9 will be our first rehearsal after "the Tree". Counting January 9, we will have 10 Wednesday rehearsals before our dress rehearsal on March 13. Oh my!
We'll have rehearsal CDs for you next week.

We return you now to your Christmas programming already in progress.

First Time in the Tree

It was fun tonight asking how many of you all were in the tree for the first time. Several raised their hands. It was also very interesting to see how many had sung in the tree all 22 years! Wow! Pretty cool!

So it's 10:45 and my lovely wife, Cheryl, and I just got home. But I promised you pictures , so here there are!

The Tree Is Up!

Elephants Never Forget

Decorating a Tree

We STILL have computer issues at church, so it could be a day or two before e-mail is going again.

Don't forget - like, how could you - that "THE Tree" shows up this week. Many of you signed up to help decorate. We can't send out a schedule or a reminder, so you'll just need to come whenever you think you remember the time or day you might have signed up to possibly help.

We'll be able to give you a schedule of sorts Wednesday night.

Thank you to everyone who helped clear the stage last night. See you Wednesday!
