Christmas Eve Service

Alright everyone, its kids time and I want to invite up to the front kids to come join me.

Kids how are we doing today? Who’s ready for Christmas? Does anyone find it hard to sleep when you are so excited for the next day?

Oh boy, I think you can do it.

All this month we have been opening one gift every week and on the inside is an item that is helping us think about at the incredible things we get to celebrate and enjoy through Christmas.

And today we only have one gift left? And in a moment we are going to open it together, but first I have a question for you. If this year, if you could open just one gift, what would you want it to be?

*Kids Responses*

Alright guys it time.

Let’s open up our final gift together and see what it is. Any guesses?

Our final item is a storybook.

Have any of you ever read this book before?

This is one of my favourite book at Christmas that we read to our kids evefy year.

Its not a story about snowman, or a story about stockings! Its a story about the moment when Jesus, God’s son came to be with us and how all of creation was waiting and was ready for this great and glorious day.

I would love to read this for us today and because it will be a bit tricky to see the pictures, which are sometimes teh best part, I have put all the pictures on the big screen behind me, so make sure you can see the screen and lets begin the story.
