No, it wasn't Mike. I suppose the guy could have been offended by the text of the poem. However, he had a week to tell me so, in which case I could have assigned it to someone else. Perhaps he didn't know that I had to turn in the entire program to the bishop (lyrics, poem, scriptures, even names of the people reading passages) for approval beforehand. (That could have been because I tried to sneak a song sung in Latin into the program last year.)

I guess I'm not used to attending other churches because mine isn't open. If your ward or stake or something had a Christmas Eve fireside or program, would you be interested? Or are you content to keep to your own way of doing things?

I might be interested in attending a Christmas Eve program. It sounds like a potentially nice family tradition.
