The pageant, titled “Night of Noel,” will feature the Oaks Bible Church orchestra, handbells and choir. Children from the church will also perform a nativity scene. There is also an audience sing-a-long.
Performances are scheduled at 6 p.m. both Friday, Dec. 12 and Saturday, Dec. 13 in the Fess Parker Resort Plaza, 633 E. Cabrillo Blvd. in Santa Barbara, and at 4 p.m. and at 6 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 14 at Samarkand Retirement Home, 2550 Treasure Drive in Santa Barbara.
“The Christmas message is full of hope for all, for the God of hope came down to us in the person of Jesus Christ,” said Craig Crawshaw, Oaks Bible Church lead pastor. “It is our privilege to present this hope to our Santa Barbara community through this musical and dramatic venue.”
Crawshaw has his master’s degree in music composition from UC Santa Barbara and is an ordained pastor through the Baptist General Conference. This year marks his 42nd year conducting a community Christmas program in Santa Barbara.
The family-friendly and interactive 75-minute variety program is free to attend.
