“Bethlehem, you are one of the smallest towns in Judah, but out of you I will bring a ruler for Israel.”
-Max {Micah 6:2}
Max participated in his first ever (and my first ever!) Christmas pageant this year! He played the prophet Micah, delivering the prophesy regarding Bethlehem. Our town does a beautiful tree-lighting ceremony in the center of town, with local schools and organizations performing throughout the evening. As soon as the tree lights, our church, which is just across the corner from the town park, opens its doors to the community with hot chocolate and cider, carols sung by our choir, a photo booth with fake snow, SO many cookies, and a Christmas pageant outside on the corner! All the kids were adorable, but Prophet Micah was my favorite. He was very nervous about the whole thing but was very brave and delivered his lines clearly.
