When tasked by the youth director, Jeff Ginn, with re-telling the nativity story, the Sr. High went with that exact approach. The purpose of the “assignment” was to add some fun to the annual Youth Christmas Party, which was held Sunday, December 18, 2012 at the First Rock Ministry Building. This is a lot of fun!
Many thanks to the youth (and youth assistant, guitar player, Dylan Haynes) for making this video and to Faith Cooper for editing the video!

Here are the lyrics:
“The Manger Rap”
Break it down…Away in a manger – No bed in his crib
The little baby Jesus – Tryin’ to sleep he was trippin’
I see stars in my eyes – Shinin’ light – shoot me down
The little baby Jesus – Whatcha’ doin’ in the hay?
The cows be jawin’ – Baby Jesus was hawin’
Though them cows say “holla” – Baby Jesus didn’t botha’
I feel you Big G – With your eyes on me
Stay by me holmes – have breakfast with me
Denny’s yeah – let’s get a grand slam…
Errrrrr… What?
The little baby Jesus – He’s one of my peeps
When we rollin’ with Jdog all you brothas should pray
Bless all da little homies – Big G watchin’ you
If ya wanna get the bling – gotta be in the posse.
(Seekers of MORE reporting) The 5th-8th graders went to Fright Fest at Six Flags on October 10, 2011. We rode many rides and played many games. Below is a drawing we made inspired by the cool rollercoasters there.
