Wow, we are all as proud as punch at ‘Team Shine’ – what amazing boys and girls we have.

‘The Inn-Spectors’ was a truly brilliant production performed twice to a packed hall full of family and friends.

We saw grumpy guests, dazzling stars, angelic angels, smart soldiers, excited sheep, frazzled shepherds, weary travellers, very wise men, humble Mary, jolly Joseph, bossy Inn-keepers, inspecting Inn-Spectors, proclaiming Gabriel and a jazzy donkey all tell the story helped by our wonderful young narrators.

You were all truly awesome. Of course the story of Jesus’ birth is wonderful – but how special to have baby Harry Weaver play the part of Jesus. He did so perfectly and it was a truly special moment.

Well done everyone and thank you all for coming along. Please visit our Facebook page to view all the photos and add your comments. DVD recordings will be available soon.

Thanks to Sainsbury’s at Cobblers Hall for providing refreshments and to Darlington Camera Club for giving their time to record the show. Also thanks to Churches Together, St. Clare’s Ladies Fellowship and the Inner Wheel for their kind donations which support Children to Shine greatly.

As a registered charity which runs free of charge weekly to all 53 children who attend, we really appreciate any help given.

Team SHINE are now on a well earned break with CHOIR returning on Monday 21st January at 5.00pm in St. Clare’s Church Hall.

Thank you – and on behalf of the team I wish you all a super and safe New Year with best wishes for 2019.

Helen McCormick
