present a Christmas play. Los Pastores,

The story of Los Pastores is built
upon the scriptural story of- the Na-

tion of the angels to the shepherds
that Christ is born in Bethlehem. The
journey of the shepherds, their strug-
gle to bear their humble gifts to the
new-born Saviour is graphically de-
picted. They are tempted by Lucifer,
the devil, who plans with his cohorts
to keep them from finding the new
king who is to overthrow him. Through
the aid of the old hermit who aids
them and the Angel Michael who kills
Lucifer in a duel, the shepherds arr
rive finally at the manger and worship
the young Christ.
