AFM Christmas - part 2 - Cookies & Crafts & Community

Christmas Cookie Bake
The best way to bake Christmas cookies...the dough is ready made by the galley...you just roll it out, cut it out (with whatever cookie cutters you can happen to get your hands on..dinosaurs, sailboats and dog bones included) and put it on the tray that is magically whisked away  bycookie fairies and baked...the tray is brought back with the cookies ready to be iced with icing that's been prepared for us!  I don't think it can get any easier...

Christmas Craft Night

Another incredibly delightful event.  20+ Christmas Crafts right at our finger tips...we just show up and create.  HUGE thanks to Shelly for coming up with the crafts, procuring the materials and lining up volunteers to run each station.

Community Performances & Such
The elementary kids have worked hard under Ms. Beth's leadership to prepare and perform multiple songs throughout the Advent Season.  There's something about children singing that has Christmas written all over it (especially when they are singing Christmas songs).  

Ms. Beth also taught the Kindergarten and Grade 1 Students a set of verses that they shared throughout the ship on Friday:

And just last night, 8 of the elementary girls lead us in worship as they danced to "Come and Worship."  A definite highlight of our Christmas.  Tremendous thanks to Ms. Suzanne for investing in them with her love and talent.
