Doors opened at 17.00. We arrived at 17.30, just in time to catch a dance performance by two young men in the community – break dancing that was quite good, and some popping and locking. Fun stuff. The Lillards have a daughter, Charity, who has an amazing voice. She translated the lyrics of an Amy Grant song to Czech, and treated everyone to a moving solo performance. A Roma equivalent of Karel Gott sang a song, a trio of musicians played; there was a Christmas drama, sing-alongs, and finally a blessing from the minister, Jerry. He talked about the double gifts – the guaranteed gift, over there in a pile of toys, brought to you by many kind angels, but also the other gift – of a new life with Jesus, which was not guaranteed, but rather a choice each individual has to make for themself. And then – at last! – the kids were lined up and called up to the podium one by one to receive their presents.
