Help needed and a reminder

Luminaries in Albuquerque, NM last year
First the help needed: I am looking for five readers for Christmas Eve service (at 7:00 p.m. in McCamey).  The parts are Joseph, Mary, the inn keeper, a shepherd boy, and one of the magi. There will be some really awkward pauses in the service if no one steps forward.
+++++
Also, we're going to be offering a service (a hymn-sing) at the McCamey Convalescent Center at 4:00 p.m. if you can come and help in the singing.
+++++ 
And now, for the reminder: Christmas is first and foremost a religious observance. Please be intentional about inviting your friends, neighbors, out-of-town guests, etc. to attend the Christmas Eve service (at 7:00 p.m. at First UMC in McCamey) and the Christmas morning service (at 9:30 a.m. at First UMC in Iraan).
All the gifts in the world are not worth very much if we forget just who and what is the point. Jesus IS the reason for the season. See you in worship this weekend.
