Echo of Joy

More Christmas prettiness

Thursday, December 30, 2010

More pretty Christmas touches from some of my churches, both from Christmas Day worship.


Gol, including Pastor Marv at the pulpit reviewing his sermon before worship.










First, inlcuding my little last-minute contribution of the blue fabric around the creche. We decided the wall was too empty, so I thought this might be a way to suggest a stable using materials we already had. I was pretty proud of myself, I must say!

Seeing all these churches is great. Are you used to all the pulpits that you have to preach in yet?

I've preached twice at most of them and it's not as difficult as I might have expected to deal with the different pulpits. I just forget the quirks until I get there then adjust as needed, like when the mic blocks my view of the manuscript!
