Our next door neighbor is Misha's seminary teacher this year (she teaches in her home), and our friend who lives down the street teaches seminary at the church. These two ladies combined their seminary classes to host a live nativity and food drive. Even though we have been having unseasonably warm weather, once the sun went down in the evening, the winter chill set in.
Misha got to be the star. The kids stayed at the nativity scene for an hour while neighbors, friends, and church members came by to enjoy the scene, drink hot cocoa, eat treats, and mingle. I was happy to see a few of our neighbors in attendance. It was a great missionary opportunity and the beginning, I think, of a new tradition.
