If
you are still looking for a Christmas Pageant idea, here’s an option. It comes from Billy Surf Martin and his wife Jen at Third
Church (Presbyterian) in Richmond, Virginia.
I’ve
included a brief synopsis from their website. You can find everything else you
need at A Christmas Pageant http://achristmaspageant.com/.
Synopsis:
“All the “regulars”
in last years Christmas pageant are retiring, so the head pastor is tasked
with placing someone new in charge. He
selects an enthusiastic associate pastor.
On the night of the pageant, the head pastor realizes that the associate
pastor has not planned anything beyond a few homemade props and dressing
himself as Joseph, but the associate pastor is able to think quickly on his
feet and come up with a plan. During a
short, funny time-lapse video montage we see the pastor quickly running through the
halls of the church gathering people and props and assembling a complete
pageant including the children’s choir and a narrator (storyteller). The curtain opens and a beautiful, polished
pageant begins, complete with a grand nativity set, produced audio/video
elements, and music throughout.”
