The Judgment of Christmas

The Judgement of Christmas was the name of the play that was held on December 16th at the Palmas Church. The Christmas service was held early because many people travel during this time of year, sort of like summer vacation in the USA. We enjoyed seeing the true meaning of Christmas declared the winner. It really is an interesting play in a time, especially in the USA, that you can't even say Merry Christmas to someone without wondering what their reaction may be. Many witnesses presented their case as to why they were the true meaning of Christmas, Santa Claus (Papai Noel), Christmas Dinner, The Church, A poor boy who was told the true meaning of Christmas, and of course the store manager who gave his 10% discount speech to the court. In the end it came out that Christmas is a time to remember that God sent His Son, Jesus into the world for each and everyone of us. A Christmas cantata sang at the beginning of the service, and a small nativity scene entered in to the last part of the play. Two dance/choreography teams danced, one being the "Blessing of God" the children's dance team, and the women's dance team Lilly of the Valley.
