This booklet has the lyrics to all 14 hymns in the Christmas section of the the LDS hymnal and is intended for use by carolers. This eight-page 1/2 sheet booklet is meant to be printed front and back. When printed that way, all the lyrics and Table…

Come Let Us Adore Him: Advent Calendar
This Advent Calendar first appeared in the December 1989 New Era. I have resurrected it, so to speak, and created a new document that could be used by Home/Visit Teachers, families, youth leaders, Priesthood, Relief Society or Seminary instructors. This is a very cool calendar. It doesn’t have the little doors that we often associate with advent calendars. Instead, each day you read a short devotional about the life of…

Christmas Nativity Progressive Supper
This time of year, Progressive Dinners, sometimes called Progressive Suppers, are incredibly popular activities for youth and Relief Societies.

Christmas Visitors
I’m so excited about our plans for Primary next week. We are welcoming some special visitors for a combined Sharing Time and Singing Time. We will hear from wise men, the inn keeper, shepherds, angels and Mary as they share their experience surrounding the Savior’s birth. Each person will provide their own simple costume and share a 1 – 2 minute narrative of who they are, what they did and how they felt about their experience with the Savior’s birth. Some will sing songs and sometimes we will sing with them.
I think this has the potential to be a powerful experience for the kids especially if the visitors allow it to be a little personal and share their feelings. I’ve been amazed so far at how willing the adults are to participate!
We’ll have only one visitor (or group of visitors) at a time and the visitors will move in and out of the room during the transition songs the children sing. Here’s my agenda:
Wise Men –
Children See the Joy CD
Inn Keeper –
Children Away in a Manger p. 42
Angels – One angel explains and then a heavenly host joins to sing: Joy to the World hymn #201 (children join in on chorus)
Children – Picture a Christmas p. 50
Shepherd – The First Noel hymn # 213 (Children join in on chorus)
Children Stars Were Gleaming p. 37
Mary – Mary’s Lullaby p. 44

Could I Hold the Baby?
I have fallen in love with this sweet Christmas song, “Could I Hold the Baby?” written by Rachel Mecham Goates. I heard about it on the Yahoo Group “Primusic” a year or two ago and although I can’t verify this information, I read that the song was a ru…
