What if, the characters from the classic Thunderbirds TV Show were to put on a nativity.
Would it look something like this?

Well. Its Christmas in 2020.
Its a bit… well what is there to say about all of this? Church Sofa is a mostly family friendly Church safe blog. So I’m going to say…. “sigh”…
Whilst there appears to be less “funny church things” than there normally are at this time of year… Here are a few nice Nativity things…

What if.
What if Away In A Manger was written in 2020? Or at least… was written for a Nativity that happened during a socially distanced age?
Would it read something like this?
Step away from the manger
Back away from the bed
Where The little Lord Jesus
Lays down His sweet head
The stars in the sky
Look down from far up high
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep in his bubble
I love Thee, Lord Jesus
Look down from the sky
And stay 2 meters away,
‘Til vaccine is nigh

Its 2020. Its been a weird year, and lets face it. This Christmas is going to be a little different to the normal. (Sorry – we’re probably gonna get a bit bored of saying “its all a bit different this year”)
As part of this “little different” Christmas, along with everything else, Christmas Carol services are going online.
So. What do you do at home to replicate that Christmas Carol Service feel?
Here are a few ideas…

Its Christmas time! (Tell me you’ve noticed)
Its a time of Christmas jumpers, Christmas shopping, and dressing up in all things… Christmas like?
Its also 2020, so its probably wise to ensure you’re keeping your distance from… everyone.
This could be your chance to have the best of both worlds.

Pick it up from Amazon, and social distance whilst playing a much loved nativity character!

In case you missed it, it seems that English churches can allow outdoors singing in all tiers from December 2nd. According to the CofE website
Guidance published by the Government on Sunday confirmed that indoor singing by both amateur and professional choirs will be permitted, and that congregations could sing carols outdoors, providing they are physically distanced.
The maximum number of people present should take into account the area of the space and the requirement to maintain 2m social distancing at all times.
