Children's Christmas Program 

Mark your calendars, the Children’s Christmas Program is scheduled for Sunday, Dec. 11th. This program is for children who are in preschool through 5th grade. The K-5 children will begin practicing tonight at 6pm in the Sanctuary. Rehearsals will be each Sunday evening from 6-7pm through December 4th. Please make every effort to have your child/children at these practices. We have a lot of music to learn in a short time! If you have questions or concerns, please call me, Sue Norberg, at 605-595-5660.
