Ada First United Methodist Church posted a 2 and one-half minute video on its Facebook that shares its church decorations with the public.
The video went live on Sunday and begins with a visit to the church altar with a Christmas creche tableau of the birth of Jesus.
Soon the video takes viewers to a close up of a Christmas tree, red poinsettias and closes with a reflection of the main church window on the Christ child.
It's a week-long kid's shopping spree at Beatitudes.
The Dec. 4 children's shopping event at Beatitudes, 210 N. Main St., format has changed for covid-19 safety precautions, according to Deb Curlis, store manager.
This is a free opportunity for children to choose nice gifts for family members.
Instead of the originally-planned one-night event, Curlis says that parents may bring their youngsters to the store anytime Tuesday through Friday, Dec. 8-11, for kid's shopping.
Store hours are noon to 5 p.m. A treat bag will be given to each child shopping. For more information call Curlis at 419-788-9459.

Ada students will return to classroom learning on Monday, Dec. 7, in two different models. Those are explained in this story from the school website, or click here for that information.
As Ada students return to classes on Monday, the school provides the following to assist in that return to campus:
• If someone in your house is being tested for covid-19, keep your student home until the test results come in. Report all cases of covid-19 to the school office.
• Students must wear a mask.
•Be prepared to return to remote learning should the need arise.
Ada residents have the Christmas spirit and it is obvious by driving around town at night to view lawn and house decorations. Make certain your next cruise includes the houses at the intersection of Johnson and Lincoln.
