Our deacons are planning our annual seniors Christmas dinner and we are looking for ideas on activities to do at dinner. We've done 'lessons & carols' and 'singing the Christmas story,' but are looking for something interactive, simple to do, as well as cost effective for a group of 80 seniors ranging in age from 65 to 95.

We have had Sinter Klaas come for a visit as well. The seniors thought that was incredible. They then told stories of the youth and Sinter Klaas... I received a shiny new nickel, an orange, etc.
