I was eight years old. That year, the Sunday school Christmas pageant was going to be a no-fuss event. All the kids were going to stand up in a line, each of us reciting a memorized verse from Luke’s Christmas story.
“And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.”
That was my line. I was disappointed!
