The Trinity Parish House is setting up their manger scene for Christmas. Everything is finished except that the Christ child is missing. As some hunt for him, others walk by and stop to admire the beautiful nativity scene. In front of the inspirational display, people seem to be able to talk about the most important aspects of their lives. We learn about the sense of emptiness in Mr. and Mrs. Vale’s life; we understand Mrs. Kopek’s hurt at being forgotten by her busy children; we struggle with teenagers Jo and Mike as they discuss their difficulties with their parents; and we feel for the torn-apart Lindelow family. But with the gentle guidance of Reverend Paulson and maybe a little "extra help," these good people start to work through their problems. In the end, we realize that Jesus is never really missing.
