St. John's Christmas Eve Pageant is woven into the Family Service in place of the Readings and Sermon. The children act out the entire Christmas story beginning with some of the Incarnation Prophecies and moving through the Annunciation, the Visitation, the Birth of Jesus and the Adoration of the Shepherds. It includes Christmas hymns and is followed by Holy Eucharist.
