It is Christmas Eve. All over town people are preparing for Christmas. Amid the hustle and bustle of the night a little church is open and prepared for any visitor. For some people on this night the scene at the little church's altar will be a lifesaver.
Here is a Christmas Eve drama in a modern-day setting. It includes parts for six adults, four teenagers, and seven children.
Scriptures, read by a narrator, are from Luke. Three familiar Christmas carols, for singing by the congregation, are part of the drama. Performance time is 15-20 minutes.
JoAnn S. Dawson is lay speaker at the Salem United Methodist Church, Wilmington, Delaware, for which she wrote this Christmas play.
