Christmas ZC Talent

Christmas Cheer in Cuiaba 2013
Our tradition at Christmas time
We celebrate "The 3 Gifts of Christmas.  We have to do it in 2 parts.  
The Zones in the South - Campo Grande, Ponta Pora and the Zones in the North, Cuiaba, Varzea Grande, Rondonopolis and Sorriso.  This is the only time during the year that the Zones come together like this as our Mission covers a large area and spans over approximately 2000 miles.
We start with a Talent Show and ask every Zone to bring a Talent to share.  It is a fun time to share together.  They share music, songs and skits and their Talents are enjoyed by all.  Sister Reber shares her Christmas Bells and every gets to participate.  Then we go into our Program 
The 3 Gifts of Christmas

                       1st - The Missionaries give a gift to the Savior - A Baptism

                               We ask them all to bring a picture of a Baptism

                       2nd - The Missionaries give the President a Gift - A memorized Scripture

                          Missionaries recite their memorized scripture to President and Sister Reber 

                       3rd - We gift the Missionaries a Gift - The Christmas Story

       This year we gave all the missionaries a bookmark with the Mission logo on it.
