Outdoor Walk through Nativity- From Christmas to the Cross This Christmas time, take a journey back in time as you walk through the streets of Bethlehem and travel all the way to Calvary. A fully costumed cast of 100 + members, as well as a wide variety of animals and live music will bring the Christmas story to life. Experience the sights and sounds of not only Christ’s birth, but also His life, crucifixion and resurrection as a leader guides your group throughout thirteen different scenes. In an effort to share the real Gift of Christmas with our neighbors, we will be collecting non-perishable food items to contribute to the local food pantry, the Total Life Community Center, in Siloam Springs, AR. This center distributes food weekly to multiple local families in need. Let’s share Christmas with our community in this tangible way as we show Christ’s love through our actions. Several golf carts will be available for those unable to walk through so that all may participate. Refreshments will also be served. If you have any further questions, you may call Judy Fetters at (804)874-9430 or email: euglena1370@yahoo.com. We hope that you can come and create a family tradition as you step back in time and travel from “Christmas to the Cross”! Dec. 14 – 6:00-9:00 p.m. and Dec. 15- 2:00-5:00 p.m.
