Kid's Day Out was a great time for the kids of the church!  We had a fun time playing games, doing crafts, activities,
fun jump, BBQ hamburgers, music and more!  We had a great group of kids and some very happy moms who enjoyed
4 hours of peace and quiet around the house!!!

The Christmas Cantata was powerful and moving!  The Ebenezer Nazarene Church Choir presented "The Name of Jesus" 
which lifted up God's Gift to this world by highlighting the many Names of Christ from Genesis to Revelation in song and some
very moving readings.  Over 275 people were drawn closer to the heart of God - His Son, the Focal Point of the Christmas Season.  
Jesus - the only Reason for the Season!
