This service is especially geared to young families, but it is a joy to all. All children are welcome to participate in the reenactment of the birth of Jesus, and there is no prior rehearsal they need to attend. Just arrive at least 15 minutes early to be fitted in a costume. The service includes familiar Christmas carols woven into the celebration of Holy Eucharist. There is no nursery available on Christmas Eve — children of all ages are welcome to stay with their families throughout the entire service.
