A Christmas Gift
A Christmas Eve Worship Service
Cynthia E. Cowen

This heartwarming dialogue between a pastor and Santa focuses our attention on the truest gift of Christmas, the Christ child. Simple to prepare, the service requires little in the way of advance rehearsal. Two good presenters can provide a meaningful worship service for the entire congregation -- children and adults.

Included is an entire order of service: call to worship, hymns, Christmas litany, prayer of the day, scripture readings, prayers, and more.
