Ministry in a Minute
The gang was all there for A Charlie Brown Christmas (ABOVE, RIGHT), performed by 16 children from the First UMC Durant Kids First children’s ministry. The youngest actor, at just 1 year old, played Woodstock. The play was produced by volunteer directors Carolyn Martens, Shelly Lee, and FUMC children’s director Mardi Dunn. Special guests Santa and Mrs. Claus also stopped in to visit with all the boys and girls. Everyone enjoyed lots of sweet treats and cookies after the play. Photos by Matt Swearengin.
