Living Nativity to return to Holy Family December 3
Our Living Nativity will return on Sunday, December 3 to Holy Family Church. For the Living Nativity, Holy Family transforms into Bethlehem with the focal point—the manger—taking center stage on the altar. Members of Holy Family’s multiple choirs lend their voices to the event, singing traditional Christmas songs, such as “Angels We Have Heard on High,” “Rise Up Shepherd and Follow,” “We Three Kings,” and “the Hallelujah Chorus” from Handel’s “Messiah,” as Holy Family staff and volunteers play the roles of shepherds, angels, and the Holy Family of Mary, Joseph, and Jesus. As no Nativity scene is complete without animals, audience members seated in pews watch as goats, sheep, donkeys, camels, and more are led up the aisle and gather round the altar.
TICKETS ARE NOW SOLD OUT!
