Christmas Party

Steven Cheng was the honored emcee at the Montgomery Chinese Branch Annual Christmas Party this year.  After an opening prayer by Sister Liou, President Charles Huang shared a special presidency message.  Everyone commenced in eating the Christmas dinner and in socializing.  During the whole evening, Abbey Zhao manned a booth for the children to create cute nativity sets out of wood.  The program began with a special video Nativity Presentation.  Brennan Zhao and Brother Qing Kun Zhong performed a special musical number with saxophone and electric guitar.  The DC Women’s Choir sang "Ave Maria" and "Mo Li Hua."  A combined choir (DC Men's Choir, DC Women's Choir, and the Branch choir) gave a stirring rendition of Handel's "For Unto Us a Child Is Born" in the chapel.  Finally, the DC Men's Choir performed the "The Little Drummer Boy."  After Sister Lau offered the closing prayer, we heard the familiar laugh of Santa Claus, who came to delight children, young and old.  Merry Christmas to all.
