A Chrismon Service
Worship Service
James Edgar

A Chrismon Service is a worship service for Christmas time, designed to incorporate the meaning of Chrismons. It portrays the drama of redemption through the use of Crismons -- symbols of Christ. These symbols are presented, explained, and then hung on the Chrismon tree. Most Chrismons are familiar signs of Christ: the Epiphany star, the Christmas rose, the manger, the angel, and many others.
