12-Days of Christmas - Our First Annual Show!


Hi Everyone - The month of December has brought many great memories already! This past Friday the set was erected for our first annual 12-Days of Christmas Show! Thank you to Tom Gallagher, Carrie Vargas, David Vargas, the Silliman family, Chad Platt and Reed Peavler for their many hours of energy to get this all completed.
Stay - tuned - hopefully I'll be able to post a video of the show.

Our performances were at 5:00 and 7:00 PM on Saturday night. If you weren't there - we had great performances by Chandler rock band Broken Rhodes, interpretive dance by 3 different groups from within Oasis and an always Christmas favorite of children singing. We were also treated to a drama performed by David & Julie Mastel, a monologue by Carrie Vargas, a humorous look at "The 12-Days After Christmas" sung in style by David Vargas and Susan Hull. And, stealing the show at both performances was the stomp-like "7 Drummers Drumming" (with 8 actual drummers!). All of these drummers are a part of our current worship team at Oasis! We are blessed with rhythm.

The dessert and coffee bar between, coordinated by Lynn Perkins, was holiday sugar coma! Thank you to everyone who assisted with preparation, set-up, tear down and most of all - eating the goodies.

My wife Caryl, our pastor over creative arts, and Carrie Vargas worked very hard and pulled off an incredible evening. Our first production of this show was incredible and provided a great time for all that attended. Rumor is that next years acts are already lining up!
I've posted a picture sent to me via email earlier today(it shows a bit of the set!) - I look forward to seeing more! Send them my way and I'll get them on the blog!

Merry Christmas - have a blessed week

Scott
