afO's Longing for the Light 2025

I have to admit that on the particular day I was there to photograph this, I was not feeling very 'Christmasy'.  I was reflecting on the extremely quiet Thanksgiving that my husband and I had, and anticipating more waves of grief hitting me as Christmas drew nearer.  This time of year is hard for me as I miss so many family members that have passed away.  But as the show began, I found myself quietly singing along between taking pictures.  And before I realized it, the weight of grief was gone.  The beauty of the songs and dance, the laughter of Ben and Hannah's story, and the retelling of Jesus' glorious coming as a baby were more than enough to realign my perspective and soothe my heart.  I hope if you also struggle with the holidays, that you set aside a couple of hours to see this wonderful show!
