The program is called "What Think Ye of Christ?" and is written by Rachelle Castor with the musical number by Diena Moore. It gives vignettes of 7 women telling how they feel about Christ. They are women from the scriptures and from Church history. Sister Castor can be reached at Rachelle Pace Castor, 1295 Oakcrest Cir., Provo, UT 84604, (801) 375-6653 or rpcastor@gmail.com if you are interested in more information. A program we did for a RS homemaking two Christmases ago [that] anyone could put this one together without a lot of work: We went looking for anything we could find about Mary. There are many poems and songs out there including some from the Children's songbook. We just put together an assortment of those using special musical numbers by the choir, a mother/daughter duet and I think a solo, for the songs then ended with a couple and their new baby in costume portraying the Nativity while the story of Christ's birth was read from the scriptures. Ended with the congretation singing Silent Night. Only lasted about half an hour then we socialized with lots of food and friendship after. Editor's note: Food and friendship... I like that! . :~) Top of page Submitted by Gayle Navarre (Kanab, Utah)

"In the Stable" (SAB w/children's Choir)--Maxine Poesgate: An easy piece with a delightful melody that the children pick up quickly. Available through commercial music vendors. "Soft, Soft" (SATB)--Hanson/Lyon: A little more difficult, but a beautiful, almost sad-sounding selection. Available through LDS music vendors. "Gesu Bambino" (Solo, SATB, TTBB, SSA, violin... you name it)--Pietro Yon: An old standard that I just can't do without. "Jesus, Name of Wondrous Love"--How/Titcomb: Another old standard with a gorgeous melody. Available through commercial music vendors, and also through LDS distribution (included in "The Choirbook). Sources for sheet music: Access to good music has improved dramatically (thank goodness!) since vendors have begun to set up shop in cyberspace. A few suggestions appear on my Links page, and many more can be found by searching the web. Have fun! Top of page Submitted by Maureen McIlwain (Alberta, Canada)
Thy Sheep, Guard Him Joseph, and others, as well as a piano-organ duet. The success of this is really dependent upon good speakers. Ours turned out really well, we had some insight into perhaps how the people involved in that first Christmas night actually felt. Top of page Submitted by Suzanne Reese (Draper, Utah)
