The Christmas Story Video Playlist (videos will be added from Dec 13 through January 6)

This is the 60th anniversary of the Christmas Story at St. John's.  
Although the COVID-19 pandemic prevents us from sharing the story in the usual format, we refuse to let the circumstances stop this tradition.

This year we are sharing The Christmas Story in a series of five videos that will be released during Advent, through Christmas and on Epiphany.  Each release will share a portion of the Christmas Story told in a new way, blending old and new content and including interviews and stories from the past sixty years.  

We thank everyone who has contributed to The Christmas Story at St. John's over the years and especially those who have helped to make this special presentation possible.  We have found a creative way to work through the COVID-19 restrictions to continue to share the story of the birth of Christ into the world --God with Us! 

We hope you enjoy the content, share it with others, and that it brings the hope of the Gospel into your heart and your home.
