Christmas Carols At The US Ambassador's Home

On Saturday afternoon (Dec. 17), the people from Kris' church were invited to the US Ambassador's home to sing carols. The Ambassador, Karen B. Stewart, attends the church along with her personal secretary. We were treated to homemade cookies and soft drinks. This was a real treat for us.

This is the front entrance to the residence.

We had our photos taken with the Ambassador and her Secretary.

There were several art pieces in the house on loan from the artists. There was a series of fabric wall hangings. One is behind us in the above photo. One wall hanging was make by Nancy Reno from Lancaster, PA.

Note that Wendy is barefooted. All our shoes were left at the front door. A list of all the attendees needed to be submitted a week before the event so that the list could be checked by the Embassy.

We went to a Christmas party last week at which the last two Goshen mayors were present. Okay, not in your social league, but we mingle where we can.
