We attended a Creche Festival on Saturday night at our local LDS Church. What a great experience. The Morman Church in our area sponsored this event. Creche is French for an infant's bed. This festival celebrated the cradle where baby Jesus is said to have lain in a stable or the official name: The Nativity Scene.
Musical director, John Fluker (yes, Gladys Knight's musical director and BYU's Education Week debut) created an excellent program for the various choirs!
Music was used to tell the Christmas story as we moved from room to room, each decorated accordingly. Live Models performed and sang to provide an excellent way to learn more of the birth of Jesus Christ.
I didn't get many clear photos because the room was dark and I didn't want to bust out my camera with the flash business going on!
I looked for my new friends (remember this?) Yeah, I sure hope I didn't scare them off! Hah! No Seriously, they were probably off on their mission for the day.
There were refreshments and crafts for the kids to enjoy. DJ was so excited about the tree and fireplace, we decided to take our craft home to complete with our playgroup friends. You know I had to get a few more for his buddies!
If you're interested in attending a Creche festival, check your local newspapers or community centers. I'm sure there's one in your area. You'll enjoy yourselves and the treats they serve as well!
Enjoy.
