Fort Davis Churches Hold Christmas Services and Events

Fort Davis area churches observed Christmas with multiple services and programs. Rev. Julian Hendren led First Presbyterian morning worship on Making The New Year New, and First Baptist heard Rev. RG Hopson on Giving God Our Best. A Christmas Eve service at First Presbyterian featured carols, candles, and the Service of Lights. Community Christmas Tree at First Presbyterian drew large crowds with a Nativity pageant directed by Mrs. J T Hendren and Mrs. H E Sproul, followed by Santa Claus. Local residents and visitors, including Jimmie Bloys in uniform, joined the festivities and family gatherings during the holiday season.
