An abandoned country church is revisited by old friends on the 100th anniversary of its founding. Believers gather on a cold Christmas Eve for dinner and a midnight church service, observed by Chester, the lonely mouse who lives in the beautiful, old church in Potter's Corners. Noisy visitors and a colorful tree ornament shaped like a beautiful lady mouse overwhelm him with sadness. As midnight approaches, he alone knows what it will take to fix the faulty Christmas tree lights. He must brave the dark basement to find the trouble. But in that same darkness lurks Slither, the snake, waiting for him... What is in store for Chester if he is courageous? Read this charming tale of love, longing, and hope as experienced by the smallest of creatures to see if Christmas Eve is still a time for miracles.
