New Vienna Community Church Puppet Ministry program Dec. 13
The New Vienna Community Church Puppet Ministry will present a performance of a puppet play called “The Christmas Cross” at the church, located at 412 West St. in New Vienna.
The puppet program will be Saturday, Dec. 13 at 7 p.m. Refreshments will be served after the program.
Ginger Breadhouse, Carolyn Bells, Holly Branch, Candy Cane, Mary, and…Ned, Ted and Jed! These are a few of the names to be found among the cast of the new Simply WordKidz Christmas musical, “The Christmas Cross.”
In the opening scene, Miss Carolyn Bells, our children's choir director, is leading the kids through their first rehearsal for this year's Christmas Extravaganza. As they begin to share their thoughts on Christmas, the heart of the story comes to the forefront as Mary begins to tell everyone about the Christmas Cross – a very special ornament with special significance – an heirloom, handed down by her grandmother.

As she explains the meaning behind the ornament..."You can't have Christmas without the Cross...", this fun, lighthearted musical is beautifully and simply transformed into a powerful message about the love of God and the message of the Gospel.
Full of great new songs, in tandem with traditional carols and a humor-filled, Biblically-sound script, “The Christmas Cross” highlights Jeff Slaughter's signature brand of creativity.
Pastor Dan Mayo commenting on the evening said: "Our puppet program has become one of the highlights of the Christmas season for the church. George and Marilyn Fenner, with their great cast; do a wonderful job of presenting the Christmas Gospel message in puppet format that is entertaining to kids and adults alike. It is a delightful evening. We hope you will set aside this evening for your family and bring them all for a great evening at NVCC."
