When we were still meeting with the LC and hosting a home meeting, for several years we would take our home meeting caroling up and down our street during one of the weeks leading up to Christmas. (At the time I didn't know to call it Advent...) It was fun to walk door to door and sing "Hark the Herald Angels Sing", "O Holy Night", and other similar hymns to our neighbors. I think our home meeting was probably unusual or even unique for that local church in that regard, but no one ever shut it down or even talked about it to us. (Of course, ours was not "in the central line of God's Economy" because we focused our care on working singles or those back from the FTT but not serving full time rather than on college students. Maybe for that reason we were off the radar. LOL)
One thing I've long loved about Advent and Christmas is it's a unique time of year when people are willing to listen to songs about Jesus.
