Elementary Christmas Production 2018
Join us for the HCA Elementary Christmas Program “Camel Lot” on Wednesday, December 5th at 7pm.
Beth has been practicing hard for the church Christmas pageant. Her Dad (who runs a car dealership) may be too busy with Christmas car sales to make it to the program. Exhausted from practice, with lines from Luke 2 swirling in her mind, she drifts off to sleep. Transported by Beth’s imagination (and a sound effect or two!) we all “wake up” in Bethlehem on a very special day, and in a most unusual place – the Camel Lot! It doesn’t take long, inside Beth’s topsy-turvy dream world, to encounter camel shoppers, sales people, shepherds, wise men, and a very familiar story, told in a fun and refreshing new way!
