SCC's Third Annual Christmas Wonderland

More than two thousand people enjoyed our annual outdoor Christmas festival on December 3rd, 2006.  New this year was the Narnia exhibit, featuring a forest of falling snow (complete with lamppost) and free Turkish Delight from a very real looking Mr. Tumnus.

Caroling Tradition Returns to SCC

SCC families shared Christmas joy with some special folks on Friday evening, December 15th.  About twenty-five carolers visited a retirement care facility and several homes to deliver smiles, candy canes and songs of the Savior's birth.  Afterwards hot chocolate and cookies were enjoyed in the fellowship hall to cap off a fun evening filled with the true spirit of Christmas!
