Written by Myrth Burr, Carolyn Gifford, Charlee Cardon Wilson
Featuring the work of Charlee Cardon Wilson, Myrth Burr and Carolyn Gifford, this Resource Manual of outlines and narrative structures will lend creativity and spiritual cohesiveness to your Christmas Sacrament Meeting presentations. All 7 of the selections included use popular Christmas songs and hymns to carry the wonderful message of the birth of the Christ Child to your congregations. A minimum number of individual copies of each program (emailed in a PDF document to you) must be purchased from the publisher to obtain performance or reading rights. The most you could spend on any reading is $8.00. There is no other royalty. Some of the original songs indicated in several scripts can be purchased for use from the Publisher, or other songs substituted. This book is provided as a resource, a perusal service only!
(A co-publication of Zion BookWorks and Zion Theatricals)
The Resource manual with all the scripts is available from both companies, but the Production Package Scripts (PDFs) are only available through Zion Theatricals.
