So many things have been happening this December so I'll try and do my best to give you all the details one day at a time.

First, I have a rumor for you: in December both became pregnant though immaculate conception and had the baby Jesus :) Actually, I played pregnant Mary for one of our events.

We had a Fun Day for Christmas and it was a total success! So many people came out; about 650-700 cars with an average of 4 per car. All those people heard the gospel!

The entire Centre was lit up with Christmas lights and carolers singing as cars drove through our property. When they reached the back, there were about 8 scenes of actors. First, an introduction into the time traveling experience and a quick joke about each donkey (aka car) wearing it's name on the nose!

Jayson and I were the next scene of pregnant Mary and Joseph traveling to Bethlehem on a donkey. Well the donkey I was to ride (though lots of people helped to train her for this night) was too scared of the dark to ride. Which was fine with me to leave it behind us since every kid freaked at it, second noticed who I was, then maybe said hi to Joseph.

After us, a inn was created and the Inn keeper (Nick S) shouted that there was no room so move on. Next, a nativity with live animals, then the 3 wise men. Several scenes later, they reach the Sermon on the Mount where the gospel was shared. Then on to a witness of the resurrection and an empty cross.

God was glorified in this event. We all just praised God for weeks afterwards!
