Description
We recommend using the sketches in the following order across a Carol Service or Christmas event.
HEAVEN AND NATURE SING
Outside the constraints of time and anxious to prepare carefully for the great event of the birth of Christ, two angels check through the finer details to make sure that all is as it should be. It soon appears that they have different approaches. Do traditional Christmas carols provide the guidelines? And, apart from being born, what has God’s Son really come to do anyway? What will he offer the world when he grows up?
Great fun and yet gets to the heart of the meaning of Christmas.

SHEPHERDS GET THE MESSAGE
Two shepherds, brother and sister Gibbo and Daw, are gob-smacked, delighted but a bit puzzled to be visited by an usual glowing person on the hills above Bethlehem. They receive a special invitation. It’s all, in their words, ‘very affecting’ and besides, they’ve never had a special invitation to anything before…
A gently amusing take on the brilliant story in Luke’s gospel, where it is those on the edge of society who are the first to be told that the birth of Christ is joy for everyone.

STABLETALK
Shortly after the birth of Jesus, Joseph is left holding the baby. It’s an opportunity for a quiet word about how they all came to be here. Even though Joseph is a stand-in father, his family line is of great importance.
