St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church will hold our Christmas Pageant as part of the 4:00 p.m. Monday, December 24 Christmas Eve Service at the church on Glidden Street in Newcastle. If you have kids or grandchildren who would like to join in, we would love to include them. All ages are welcome, infants through teenagers! The single practice will be held in the sanctuary on Saturday, December 22, 10:00 a.m. through noon, when we will hand out parts and costumes, then walk through the pageant twice, finding a place for each child to shine. No memorization is required for this simple, yet lovely annual telling of the Christmas story as found in the Book of Luke, and featuring carols sung by the congregation. If possible, please contact Director of
Choirs Linda Blanchard before the practice at lindamaine@mac.comor 380-2768 to let her know your child’s age and preferred part.

Attention lovers of Old time bluegrass, classic country, and sea shanties! Come out to play (or listen) at our jam session from 1-3pm every Sunday. We are lucky to have a wonderful community of musicians in the midcoast area and we would love to have you join us.

Please join us for a moving and culturally rich experience with award winning singer-songwriter Jud Caswell. Jud will perform Irish & American folk music on various stringed instruments. (207) 563-5523.
