Giving Thanks for a Blessed Christmas Pageant

Dear Volunteers, Families, and Participants,

Since 2021, St. John’s has been presenting a Christmas Pageant, and over the years it has slowly become a cherished tradition—one through which we share not only our individual gifts with our community, but also Christ’s message of love. This year’s pageant was a beautiful continuation of that tradition.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to everyone who made our Christmas Pageant on December 14 such a meaningful and joyful celebration. With over 100 people gathered in worship, the service was a powerful testimony to what can happen when a community comes together in love, faith, and service.

To our wonderful families and participants—thank you for your time, commitment, and openness in sharing the Christmas story. Your presence, preparation, and willingness to serve helped create a space of warmth and reverence that touched so many hearts.

We are especially and deeply grateful to Susan McKay, Susanne Adams, and Sharon Klassen. Your dedication, countless hours, and tireless behind-the-scenes efforts carried this pageant from an idea to a truly special experience. Your leadership, patience, and care were evident in every detail, and we truly could not have done this without you.

To every volunteer who helped in ways seen and unseen—thank you for your generosity, flexibility, and joyful spirit. Your efforts made it possible for this service to run smoothly and for the message of Christmas to shine so brightly.

May the love and hope we shared continue to stay with us throughout the season and beyond. Thank you for giving so much of yourselves to make this celebration one to remember.

With heartfelt gratitude and blessings,

Daniela Cruz.
