Church Farm Celebrates 100th Christmas Pageant
Read More“It was said that people had been growing less careful of their gifts for the Christ-child, and that no offering was brought great enough to deserve the music of the chimes.”These words from Raymond MacDonald Alden's 1909 short story, "Why the Chimes Rang," set the stage for a story that has been part of the Church Farm School Christmas tradition for 99 years. A beautiful Christmas Festival where people come from near and far in the hopes of making the long-dormant chimes ring once again by placing an especially pleasing gift at the altar. Kings, queens, authors, misers, knights and more vie for the renown that the chimes will bring them. Yet, in the spirit of Christmas, it is in fact the humblest and most sincere gift – a gift of two young boys – that most represents the true meaning of the season.
