The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is inviting everyone to come experience the true spirit of Christmas during a live drive-thru Biblical account of the birth of Jesus Christ, December 19th and 20th, at the church on Richmond Road.
This family-friendly, safe, outdoor Live Nativity will run 7:00 to 8:00p.m. each evening.
Admission to the Live Drive-Thru Nativity is free, open to the public and you can arrive anytime between 7:00 and 8:00p.m., at the church, 905 Richmond Road, across from Diamond View School.
When you get to the church look for the Roman Soldiers at the entry to Bethlehem and be sure to tune in your radio station to the posted channel as you arrive.
“As you drive through Bethlehem,” explains event organizer BJ Hubbard, “this event will feature scenes leading up to the birth of Jesus Christ.”
“Experience Mary and Joseph traveling to the City of David to pay their taxes, the shepherds in the field keeping watch over their flocks by night and the glorious birth of Jesus Christ into the world.”
“Children and adults will love the authentic experience of live sheep, donkeys, goats and even camels!”
Hubbard points out that the event is even more special this year because family groups have been cast to play the roles together.
“Through the two nights two different newborn babies will make their acting debut as Baby Jesus, the central figure of the event and season.”
“This live nativity presentation is our gift to the community during a time of so much change and uncertainty in the world. We hope this small event will bring the spirit of hope, peace and joy to all,” said Hubbard.
The church suggests that drive-thru attendees bring blankets, warm pajamas and hot cocoa as they enjoy the event from the comfort of their vehicles.
