From a simple, timeless child's game comes a meaningful Christmas worship experience for the young children in your congregation-just as you would expect from Anna Laura Page and Jean Anne Shafferman. Together, they have created a story of three little shepherds who are inspired by their grandfather's stories to go on a hide-and-seek search for the newborn King. They follow clues from the ancient prophets Isaiah and Micah, finding prophecies fulfilled along the way, as well as three kings who are also following clues. More importantly, they learn the importance of seeking King Jesus in all that they say and do, and in the inspiring finale, the cast challenges the congregation to do the same. "Where's the Newborn King?" offers six speaking and six non-speaking roles, and it comes complete with reproducible song sheets and narration. The unison songs feature limited, optional two-part writing. Learning is aided by both the fully supportive piano accompaniment and by familiar carols. |
