Dexter, Missouri - Each year our community gathers in downtown Dexter to officially welcome the holiday season with an inspirational reading from the Second Chapter of Luke.
The Christmas Reading began in 2009 by Greg Mathis and follows a longtime family tradition.
“Too often we tend to get caught up in the rush of the holiday season,” Mathis said. “It is simply a reading by a special person in the local community who tells aloud the true story of the first Christmas.”
The annual Christmas Reading will be held across from Rainey-Mathis Funeral Home on Stoddard Street at 6:00 p.m. Saturday, November 28th. The Crowley’s Ridge Mennonite Church Choir will perform Christmas carols following the reading.
The public is invited and encouraged to attend this beautiful event. Dress warm and bring a lawn chair!
