With the wind chill better than on Halloween, Epicenter Church volunteers served up s'mores and hot chocolate along with games and caricatures at the "Light of Christmas" gathering on Sunday, Dec. 20. Attendees also heard the Christmas story along with a live nativity and sang Christmas hymns.
The gathering has the possibility of becoming a yearly event, adding to the Wadena Ministerial Association's nativity lighting that the churches host yearly. The nativity is displayed on Wesley Lawn.
