Set to the sounds of the motion picture soundtrack, guests on board will enjoy warm cocoa and a treat while listening and reading along with the magical story. Children?s faces show the magic of the season when the train arrives at the ?North Pole? to find Santa Claus waiting.

Dec 7    Tangible Evidence of Jesus
Sylva author, Mary Joyce will present her book Tangible Evidence of Jesus on Sunday, December 7th at 2 p.m. at City Lights Bookstore. Tangible Evidence of Jesus was written after the Joyce plodded through much archaeological evidence and academic research. It is intended to be a bridge between scholarly researchers and most of the rest of us. It also was written for those who would like proof of Jesus beyond what is written in Christian Bibles. The writing style deliberately is condensed and to the point with plenty of photos, art and graphics to make it easy for anyone to learn fascinating information about Jesus that generally is not known. Mary Joyce is also the author of The Cherokee Little People Are Real. To reserve copies of her books please call City Lights Bookstore at 828-586-9499.
