Keeping Advent in a school or parish is challenging, especially when the surrounding culture begins the celebration of Christmas earlier and earlier each year.  Creation to Christmas is a wonderful tool to remind all involved that the anticipation of the season is for someone, not some thing.  This Advent program is rich in both musical and catechetical content as it teaches students not only about salvation history but music history as well, incorporating various spirituals throughout the program.  Everything your community needs to prepare this program is provided here: a full script with keyboard or guitar arrangements of the songs, director’s notes, templates for the Jesse Tree ornaments, and necessary participation forms, with reprintable elements provided on the included CD-ROM.  Sure to become a well-loved tradition year after year!
