Williamsburg Candy Village

In 2007, Second Baptist Church Houston, Texas did something very special at Christmas time. Along with many other Christmas activities, the Bible Study classes all had the activity of building a ginger bread house based on an actual home from Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia. The homes were then placed into a village setting. Many people toured the "village" and of course experienced the warm welcome of the church family. I was fortunate enough to come in during the morning hours before many arrived and captured some of these scenes which I hope you enjoy.
