Carol Perkins: Being a part of church at Christmas time For those children who don't have a church to attend or a Christmas program to in which to participate, I urge parents to take them. If you can't, at least send them. Some of my happiest times growing up was with my extended church family. - CAROL PERKINS Next earlier Carol Perkins column, the hilarious: Historic moment in Upton, KY By Carol Perkins For as long as I can remember, I have been part of a church. For as long as I can remember, we have celebrated the birth of Jesus with a manger scene, shepherds, wise men, Joseph and Mary, and angels. As a small child, I was an "angel in training," which meant when I was middle school age, I became a "grown-up" angel. The costumes never changed. When I was a senior, I narrated the program, which was a huge honor and responsibility. I never forgot that Ruth Butler had enough faith in me to put me in that spot. I was a nervous wreck before I began, but I remember feeling a calm come over me as the candles flickered in the windows and the children took their places at the manger scene. God's hand at work.
