Someone's knocking at the door - a Christmas nativity

SOMEONE’S KNOCKING AT THE DOOR!

On Christmas Eve at St Mary’s Church we were treated to a most wonderful spectacle when children from the school and village performed a nativity drama as part of a traditional candlelit carol service.

The atmosphere was truly magical and especially this year as we were blessed with a ! REAL BABY ! acting the part of the baby Jesus.

Mary was played very movingly by Izzie Watts from Erpingham School and she held the baby so well he fell fast asleep!

A  packed church sang their hearts out, as we were taken through the nativity story with everyone from a postman bringing  a parcel of baby clothes  and toys, to Mary and Joseph, the Angel Gabriel together  with the ‘heavenly host’, the innkeeper, the shepherds and the ‘kings’.

Thank you to all the children for playing their parts so well, and to all those ‘grown ups’ who helped in so many ways.
