The
holiday season brings many activities to our Meeting. Children in
our First Day School begin by participating in Godly Play about the
Christmas Story. Following that, they begin to make decorations for
our very special Christmas tree, which we place out on the porch of
our Schoolhouse. The most unique feature of our tree is the food for
the birds and animals that the children work into pine cones smeared
with peanut butter. Another colorful, yet nutritious item are the
apple rings that they prepare to dangle on the pine branches. But
most of all, the tree comes alive with their very special handmade
ornaments.

But the holiday
spirit doesn’t stop with decorating our tree. Children make
cookies to be eaten after our annual Christmas program.
