12.15.15 Christmas Music at Church

250737_517934018238764_1565914324_nTuesday, December 15, 2015 – Our last two weekends have both included attending our church, Trinity Baptist Church, Adult and Children’s Choirs Christmas music.

The Children’s music was “A Tree Lot Christmas” and was so wonderful.    Every year the children 6th grade and under put on a Biblical Christmas musical and play.  This one was every bit as special as all the rest we’ve enjoyed.  Since I don’t teach Sunday School any longer and we are not living in town any longer, it’s a wonderful way to enjoy seeing the children grow each year.

A couple of the young people you’ll see in the photos are teenagers, graduating from high school now.  They were children in my 3rd and 4th grade Sunday School class and I have wonderful memories with both of them!

After the Children’s Musical we all enjoyed tasting the yummy cakes baked by the men of our church.  They had to bake them without help from their wives, mothers or anyone.  And they did a fabulous job!  I had a taste of six different cakes and they were all delicious!

Here are some photos taken Sunday morning of the Adult choir’s performance.

Our church has changed a lot this past year and I am over joyed with the direction it is now taking.  If you live in or around Hammond and do not have a church home, I hope that will consider visiting Trinity.  Worship on

Trinity Baptist Church, 42062 Pumpkin Center Road, Hammond, LA

 

Sunday mornings begins with Bible Study at 9:30 and Worship Service at 10:45.  The address is 42062 Pumpkin Center Road.  Off I-12 outside of Hammond, LA.

We have wonderfully active programs for children and youth on Sunday morning, Sunday evening and Wednesday evening.  Youth and Children have activities on other dates each month or so.  What better way to raise your children than around other children who are learning to love the Lord and learning about Him throughout their young lives.  The youth group allows us to continue teaching them about Christ as their lives become more independent of their parents.  That is such an important stage in a young person’s life and Trinity’s Youth program is the perfect supplement to a parent’s Christian upbringing of their youth.

I have more to share about Christmas in New Orleans and our various traditions.

Ya’ll come back now, ya’ hear!
