Kansas City Chiefs GrinchMas Shirt

The best Christmas memories are from church. There was a Kansas City Chiefs GrinchMas Shirtcandlelight service at our church. When I got older, I was allowed to walk down the aisle and stop at every pew, and the first person seated would light their candle from the big one I carried. When all the candles were lit, the lights would go off, and a hush would always fall over the congregation as we all sat in the dark with our lit candles glowing brightly. We sang all the old Christmas hymns, such as Silent Night, O Little Town Of Bethlehem, We Three Kings, and more. I was always mesmerized as the Pastor told the story of Christ’s birth, and usually there was a live nativity made up of real farm animals and little kids playing the parts. There was always a children’s time, when the Pastor called the little children to come and sit up front, near the alter, while he told them a story having to do with the birth of Jesus, and gave each kid a candy cane. Christmas Eve services were so great back then. Now there are no candles, just little battery operated lights, and the service is held at either 3 pm or 6 pm, because families are too busy to stay up so late on Christmas Eve.

They were not a part of popular American mass culture before the 1840s. The large German immigration (and much opposition to them) was between 1840 and 1910. Over 4.4 million Germans came in that period. Even in the 1870s they were concentrated only in ethnic enclaves and much of America worried that the wold never assimilate.
