The tables were set with a variety of home baked cookies to please the many families that had come to participate in this communal activity. Classic German Christmas songs were interspersed with well-known poems, delivered by the Hansa Choir members.

It is hard to tear oneself away from such heart-warming activities, but all good things come eventually to an end. The Hansa Club has its children Christmas Party on the 12th of December. That is something to look forward to.
