Merry Christmas to all! Anyone else attend a Christmas Eve candlelight service? Tradition in my family for nearly 70 years. Same church. My wife and I opened presents to each other this morning with a fire crackling in the background and Amy Grant Christmas music playing. I made her a six foot ladder for displaying her knitting, she got me tools. But the coolest was a piece of the old Mackinaw bridge grating, complete with flaking green paint. Cool stuff for an old civil engineer like me. I remember watching them build it back in the 1950's when my uncle lived in Cheboygan, a stone's throw from the bridge.

Merry Christmas to all. Christmas eve is always spent with Anna, my sisters, brother in law, niece, nephew, my four kids, boy/girl friends and whoever else walks in out home....We do a dinner, open a few presents, and play some games... its fun. today, its with my Aunts,
uncle, cousins etc. That means like 60ish - plus - people coming through my aunt's house today.

Merry Christmas to all!

To answer Ole's question. Five miles from our house there is a little Episcopal church, that only has one service a year-Christmas Eve. It is a nice little timber framed building, built in 1869, with the Sanctuary about 24x40. Everything is Heart pine, except the casings are Poplar, and the Chair Rail is Walnut. There is no heat. It does get cold, so dress warm. The singing sounded wonderful with a full house.

Picture was taken while being set up with a little generator. The service was by candlelight. It was hard to get a decent picture with my phone. The trusses over the Pulpit are the same design as the larger ones over the Sanctuary. Pews are original. It was a very nice experience.

Cool (literally) church Tom. This addition to our Lutheran church was in 1957, my dad was on the building committee. Big Douglas fir 8" x 8" trusses, 3" T&G ceiling.
