Christmas Eve Music These are sound files (mp3 files) of all of the music from the Christmas Eve Service at First Mennonite, held jointly with Summit and Bethel Mennonite Churches. The readings from the service were not useable, having relatively low volume levels. The bulletin can be opened HERE. It will open in a new window, so that you can see where in the service the songs occur, and what the readings are. Thanks to Chris Chamberlin for making the recording!
