Can you believe it is already November? This year I want to make sure to enjoy every moment and opportunity given to me especially during the Christmas season. So, that is why I'm excited to share with you a fun family tradition to enjoy this Christmas.
Have you heard of The Forgotten Carols?

About:
This season, we invite you to join us for this beautifully re-imagined telling of Michael McLean’s holiday tradition THE FORGOTTEN CAROLS. Touring since 1991, this timeless Christmas tradition brings to life the story of Constance Louise Chamberlain, a nurse who hasn’t laughed or cried in over 30 years. But that all changes when she meets, and cares for, a homeless man with dementia (Uncle John, as he likes to be called) who insists he’s been alive for over two thousand years. Uncle John recounts the story of Christ’s birth through these Forgotten Carols sung from the perspective of his “friends” the Inn Keeper, a Shepherd, Handel and others, taking Connie Lou on a life-altering journey. As Uncle John struggles to remember all the reasons why he feels compelled to share these unknown carols with his nurse, she discovers what her heart has forgotten about the true power and meaning of Christmas!

My experience:
I had the opportunity of seeing The Forgotten Carols in 2014 after being invited by Deseret Book to a private event, Deck the Shelves. During the event, I was privileged to not only meet Michael McLean but hear him play us a song. It was amazing! He had such a loving heart and amazing voice. Then I was invited to see The Forgotten Carols with my sister, Tiffany. It was the highlight of my year. The music warmed my heart and I felt the spirit of the true meaning of Christmas.
