Scene 7
(The entire group walks out of the stable and stops outside the
"doorway." Their lives are changed.)
I would never believe I would live to see this day.
FLO:
Neither would I.
LYDIA:
My uncle Simeon told me that God let him know he wouldn't
die until he saw the Messiah. He's so old I knew it would be
soon. That's why I'm in Bethlehem—I wanted to see Him.

MO:

MS. HALA: In all of the world, we're the only ones who know the Messiah
has been born in Bethlehem.
You were right, Flo. Sometimes working at night has its
benefits.
SKIP:
So what do we do now?
TOMMY:
We've got to tell everyone we can!
BIFF:
They'll never believe us!
BUFFY:
How can we speak to so many people?
TOMMY:
Don't be so negative! This is the good news we've been waiting
for! Let's spread the news!

LYDIA:
(Lisa and Josh come running up.)
LISA:
Mo! Come quick! A caravan has pulled up in front of the
diner. There's a huge line of hungry people waiting to be fed.
JOSH:
They saw your "Open 24 Hours" sign!
LISA:
Apparently, they're tourists from all over the world.
FLO:
I'm afraid there's nothing we can do to help them. It's after
midnight and Mo has decided we're not going to be open
overnight any more.
