		<description><![CDATA[On Christmas Eve this year our family participated in a different kind of "Church Service". Apparently, a few months back Mr. MoSop signed us all up for the weekly wardhouse cleaning detail. He felt it would be "a great chance for us to give a gift to Jesus on Christmas". This blog post gives the lowdown on our non-traditional Christmas "gift-giving" experience - with a few "tips" thrown in for future participants. <span class="more-link"><a href="http://mormonsoprano.com/2011/12/27/christmas-eve-service-takes-on-new-meaning/">Continue reading &#187;</a></span><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mormonsoprano.com&#038;blog=2126425&#038;post=10554&#038;subd=mormonsoprano&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Every year in November my friend Nola Child begins to unwrap her Christmas treasures and transform her home into a sacred museum, of sorts. It takes Nola over a week of full-time effort to get everything into place. That's because Nola owns over 600 nativity scenes from around the world (although, I've heard the unofficial number might be closer to 700). . . [Merry Christmas everyone! In this post, Enjoy Nola's nativity collection as a MoSop video] <span class="more-link"><a href="http://mormonsoprano.com/2011/12/24/nativity-collection-shares-peace-goodwill/">Continue reading &#187;</a></span><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mormonsoprano.com&#038;blog=2126425&#038;post=10542&#038;subd=mormonsoprano&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

Take Carol of The Bells, for instance, which usually scrapes along the edge of my nerves like a dull razor.
