It's Christmas Time in the City

The past two days have been amazing as far as getting one into the Christmas spirit. Last night around 9 pm we thought we would go caroling around the student dorms and just have some fun.
The student response was tremendous to say the least. I felt like I was a rock star. Nearly every student crowded around to try to take a picture and were just insanely happy that we were spending some time with them on our important holiday. To give you an idea of the rock concert like conditions here's some pictures Geoff took of them taking pictures of us...

It was crazy, we ended up singing every song we knew and then some and still they wanted more.

Then today on Christmas, we had a short Christmas skit and because of the holiday itself we were able to be a lot more bold and do the entire Christmas story as well as read some passages from Luke and Isaiah. I'm not sure how much the students got out of it but it felt really good to be able to do this and we even got it cleared by our liason, a registered Party member who insisted we tell the entire biblical story in order to give all the facts about Christmas. Amazing.
