The congregation of Light of Christ Lutheran Church in Algonquin listens to the Rev. Sharon Rogers reading the Christmas story Thursday morning inside a barn in Huntley. The church has made it a tradition to hold Christmas Day services in an unheated barn, to re-create the unadorned circumstances of Jesus's birth.
