"Hanging of the Greens" pictures

Thank you all for a splendid "Hanging of the Greens" event this morning at Christ Church!

We hosted around 40 people, including adults and children, at our annual Advent gathering. The activities were generously organized by the diligent members of the Worship and Children's Education committees.

The Worship committee arranged for all of the beautiful sanctuary decorations, including a brand new Advent Wreath and Christmas tree. Plan to come to Christ Church tomorrow morning to see the decorations and appreciate all their hard work!


The Children's Education committee led the kids in several crafts, like decorating Christmas cookies and making tree ornaments and garlands. The special Christmas tree with all the children's homemade ornaments is located in the Fellowship Hall.

Pastor Carolyn gathered the children and adults in the Sanctuary for brief time of worship. We sang carols and talked about the significance of the Christmas tree and the Communion altar rails.

Following worship, everyone gathered back in the Fellowship Hall for soup, bread and freshly-baked Christmas cookies!

I encourage everyone to view the entire photoset of "Hanging of the Greens" 2005, which includes more than thirty pictures from this morning's "Hanging of the Greens" event!
