Emily and Sage Lambrelli were glad to get their cookies from Rotary president Sheryl Kempain and warm up with a tasty drink of cocoa. The Danielson Rotary members look forward to serving the community at the Frostival and in many other ways throughout the year including the recent Veteran's Dinner, the Amber Alert Program at the Brooklyn Fair and the donation of hard covered dictionaries to all the third grade students in the schools in Brooklyn and Killingly including St. James. The club meets each week at the Quinebaug Valley Community College Danielson Campus on Thursday mornings at 7 a.m. and welcomes new members to help serve our community.

Putnam church celebrates ‘A Night in Bethlehem’

PUTNAM — Several perfor- mances of East Putnam Community Church’s second annu- al “A Night in Bethlehem” outdoor musical retelling of the Christmas story took place in the church’s field on Friday and Saturday night, Dec. 10 and 11. A crowd of about 50 guests lis- tened and watched under a cold December sky as church members took the leading roles of Mary, Joseph, the innkeeper and Three Wise Men while a bevy of robed and winged children starred as shepherds and angels. Local pygmy goats Naomi and Penelope of Kingdom Kids Family Farm in Killingly also took part in the event, starring as “the sheep.” “Last year I brought my alpacas to pose as camels,” said Kingdom Kids owner Michelle Lyon, thereby underscoring the apparently press- ing — and heretofore unknown — need for more dramatically inclined animals in the Quiet Corner. After the event, church Samuel Antonelli, 10, of Killingly, practices “Oh Come Oh members and guests returned to Elizabeth Antonelli, 12, of Danielson, practices her violin along with fellow musician Serena Barry, Come Emmanuel” on his trumpet before stepping in to his the fellowship hall for hot choco- 12, of Danielson and friend Kora Peterson, 8, of Woodstock. role as a shepherd. late, popcorn and Christmas carols.
