One of the joys in this season is the annual Christmas Pageant at the First Presbyterian Union Church, located at North Avenue and Temple Street in Owego. This year\u2019s pageant is set for Sunday, Dec. 18, at 10 a.m. in the church sanctuary; the pageant will also be live streamed. The 2022 Christmas Pageant, \u201cFinding Peace\u201d, is open to the community. <\/span><\/p>\n

The impressive cast numbers 57 people of diverse ages; from college students who are home on break from their studies and who have participated in the pageants since childhood, to older adults in their 80s (one angel is 99 years old).  <\/span><\/p>\n

The music will include one or more verses from 15 Christmas carols and hymns. The pianist will be BJ Heinle, the church\u2019s Director of Music and organists will be brothers Jordan and Jacob Dove. The audio coordination will be by William Hall. The costume coordination is Joan Oliver.<\/p>\n

The new pageant script is written each year by William Dove, a gifted playwright known for his insights into the biblical story with some humor, and for matching biblical personalities with the personalities of church members. Mr. Dove is a Ruling Elder in the church, and he teaches English at Spencer-Van Etten High School.  <\/p>\n
