The Nativity


For the past 6ish year the Littleton Stake and other church in the area start the Christmas season with a Creche Festival. It would be the next Thursday -Sunday after Thanksgiving. Hundreds and Hundreds of nativity would be set up in the church for all to come see. There were wonderful musical number in the chapel too. Many of the Nativities would be from other countries. Someone could spent more then 2 hours or more looking at all the Nativities and not see them all. I like to start the Christmas season by going and taking the family.

This year they changed it. They only had a few Nativities sets (maybe 50). The major focus was on the theater performances acting out the story of Christ birth. It was a nice combination of music and acting. I really enjoyed it, and wish my kids could see it. (they were home sick this year.) My cousin Austin was Joseph. He did a great job. The spirit was very strong; a wonderful way to help remember the true reason for Christmas.
