The younger youth of St. Stephen Evangelical Church can look back in pride at their Christmas program over the recent holiday season.
The special program titled, A Sleepover at the Stable, was about the night Jesus was born, giving the animals’ perspective of his birth.
The cast ranged in ages from two to 15 and gave a great performance.
Kelli Hoff painted the faces of all animals onto the face of each child and did a great job. The cast was Brianne Shipley, Natalie Shuler, Lindsey Keller, Kennedy Yonce, Becca Wyndham, Keller Wofford, Savannah Ballentine, Kirby Easler, Kingston Horne, Reed Keller, Rileigh Ballentine, Brooklyn Wyndham, Mary Page Wofford, Macy Myers, Maggie Driggers and Caroline Ballentine. The program was enjoyed by all.
