Hannah’s Christmas Program (video)
What follows is a 2-3 minute video of Hannah’s school Christmas program. It’s going to be a little hard to see what’s going on, since it was a little dark for my little free digital camera. 😉 But let me tell you a little about what you will see.
Hannah is in the first couple of songs, first with her class, and then singing "We Wish You A Merry Christmas" with her whole class. Then she’s done!
Edit: Forgot to tell you – her main song was “El Burrito de Belén” – the donkey of Bethlehem. It’s about someone urging their donkey to hurry because they’re going to Bethlehem to see Jesus.
Interwoven throughout the rest of the program was a pastorela. If you’re not familiar with Mexican Christmas traditions, you may be shocked to discover that the main characters were Lucifer and two of his demons! Devils are a common part of the Christmas story here – the bad guys, who are always lurking in nativity scenes.
You’ll also hear some traditional Mexican Christmas music, just brief clips.
Finally, with a whiplash-inducing change of pace, the program ended with an English praise and worship song – Who is like the Lord? Stand up, and give Him the praise!
Without further ado, here it is…
[Edit: Sorry, had a little trouble with the video, but it should be working now]
