Since moving to this area, among other things, we have found a church home that we love. Old South Church is a active, vibrant and growing church in this area in a time when most churches are on the decline. I think that it continues to thrive because of its message that, "no matter who you are or where you are on life's journey, you are welcome here" It is a cool message that they actually practice and it is apparent just walking through the door. For our family, our kids love it here, all of them. So, when Christmas pageant time rolled around and James emphatically wanted to be Mary, they let him. They acted as if it was the most normal thing in the world and were totally accepting and embraced the fact that he wanted to play Mary:) Noah was Joseph and Ben was a sheep, but being the only animal he was also proficient at making any and all of the other animal sounds at the drop of a hat. The pageant was so cute and all of the kids had a blast and took their roles very seriously. Merry Christmas!
