Links to Christmas ideas and free stuff
We have just begun our blog. We will add to this from time to time to tell you about additions to this mini-site, and also to give you news about progress with our main free resources site, which is not yet ready.
>> Visit the blog here
The sites below are not our own, but are listed because they contain a lot of useful information.
It does not necessarily mean that we agree with everything the sites teach; nor does it indicate that we endorse other websites they may link to. Though we do not expect you to find anything untoward, please use spiritual discernment when you view these external sites.
Available from the web site of Damaris.org are some great new free resources, based on the new film "NATIVITY". They include scripts for children's talks, video clips for discussion starters, etc. We haven't seen the movie, but many of your friends and neighbours, with their children, may go to see it. This could be a way of connecting with them, and showing the relevance of the Christmas message for today.
Free New Christmas Videos

Free New Christmas Music
This site has original music, many of the items have a midi file you can download to learn the tune, a score, and even an MP3 of a performance. The lyrics are all posted too.
