Hanging of the Greens During Worship!

We decorated the Sanctuary for Christmas during worship this year for the first time so more folks could experience the beauty! The kids had a great time hearing the Christmas story, placing the figures in the manger scene, decorating the tree and bringing gifts to put under the tree for the Root Cellar gift drive. Adults heard the Scriptures and symbolic meanings behind the evergreens, tree, wreathes, and holly, and sang lots of Adventy hymns! What did you think of holding this as part of morning worship rather than a separate afternoon or evening worship? Would love to hear your thoughts.  You may view the Hanging of the Green Photo Album here.
