The Naming of Nochebuena in the Midnight Play

All very familiar to many is the story of the first Christmas, so Michele Jeanmarie envelopes it around another popular story of the season, the story of the poinsettia, but again, enveloping these two stories with Sacred Scriptures. The author takes a deep plunge into the Old and New Testament, where the old is revealed in the new, and the new is foretold in the old, inserting a spectator at key points during the Midnight Mass as she reveals the history of the poinsettia.
