You know you want your own personal copy of Luther for Christmas. Even Family Video has it!
What makes you think I don't already have one and invited everyone over for a potluck with hotdish and jello?

Epiphany (which you mentioned) is a pretty big deal in the church I grew up in. We actually put the creche out at the start of Advent with only the animals, and add the other figures in as they arrive. We may be horrible though, because we do presents again at Epiphany.

We also did Jesus' birthday cake. Each week in advent we add another ingredient and talk about the symbolism of it. Then we have cake after church on Christmas (which is after the Christmas Eve candlelight service so it is technically his birthday when we are done).

Palm Sunday is HUGE. We march around the outside of the church with our palm fronds in a procession. Pentecost is also big as we wear red, and is the time for confirmation.
