STATIONS OF THE STABLE
 
As a gift to the people of our community, we will present the Stations of the Stable on Sunday, December 20. Many volunteers are needed as we share the celebration of Jesus’ birth with a world desperately in need of the joy of Christ.
 

Join for this live, outdoor nativity. Drive through from 4:00 pm to 6:30 pm. There will be a petting zoo, door prizes, hot cocoa and more.

According to Shyann Topel,“You will experience the birth of Jesus before your eyes. You’re in Bethlehem. You can see and smell the animals. You can touch them as the experience touches you.” Shyann says: “More than ever, people need to connect with God. Stations of the Stable is a super-cool way to do it!
