The mutual broadcasting system in cooperation with Family Theater Incorporated presents Blessed are they starring Margaret O'Brien. Kenny Baker is your host. More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of. Gee, isn't it wonderful this Christmas spirit?

You see it in the smile on her friend's face. You hear it in his merry Christmas to you. You feel it in your home where the coming of the Christ child always seems to bring your family closer together in love.

and understanding. Maybe you wonder why it can't be like that all the time. Well, we are the family theater think it can, if you pray for it. We believe that the family that prays together stays together, always.

Our story this week is about a family with faith and prayer. And here's a young lady who will be at star, Ms. Margaret O'Brien. Hello, Margaret. Hello, Mr. Baker. Are you going to sing for us?

Ten. This is a story of a certain family on a certain Christmas Eve in London.

It all might have happened in New York, where the children call the loveable O'Fellow, who represents the spirit of giving Santa Claus. Or in general, where they call them Chris Kringle. Perhaps it did happen in those places too.

But this story took place in London, where it's Father Christmas, who is the bringer of gifts. It was cold out there on the balcony, but I do love the hymns of the carolers. They seem to make Christmas Eve so... so real somehow.
