Mattapoisett Congregational Church thanks its stars
Dec 18, 2018
The members of The Christian Education Committee of the Mattapoisett Congregational Church would like to say thank you to those of us who took time from our busy holiday schedule to attend a positively delightful rendition of an old, old story of the birth of Christ on Sunday afternoon.
Attendees were not disappointed. Chuck Talley and a cast of many talented people of all ages presented a rendition of “A Star is Born: In The East.” Scenery, costumes and much musical talent contributed to a wonderful celebration.
Reverend Amy Lignitz Harken welcomed all who were in attendance. Music was provided by Michelle Gordon with solos by Elliott Talley and Nicole Lonergan. Margaret Berry and Carey McCollester pleased the congregation with a musical rendition of “Mary Did You Know?" The narration was provided by Jerry Baker. We were so pleased to have the part of the Baby Jesus played by Gavin Matthew Pawlishen.
It raised over $250.00 and many gifts which were wrapped in white paper, giving our pageant its well remembered name. Children from all over town are the recipients of some of the most needed Christmas gifts.
