A Night in Bethlehem




My mom and I took the kids to "A Night In Bethlehem" at Calvary Christian Church in Bellevue on December 21st. They used their big activity center to portray the streets of Bethlehem and what it would have been like back in Jesus's time. It was wonderful because it was an indoor activity for the kids on a cold winter night! The kids went around and there were actors acting out different scenes like the 3 kings and the innkeeper, and angel and Mary and Joseph and baby Jesus. They got to collect parts for a little manger scene throughout the night and make different activities. We made a scroll that they had to carry around with them because of the "Census" that was going on back then. That way we were all "counted" for Ceasar. They also made bracelets, painted a Star ornament, made a clay pot and got to play with bread dough. They had a great time!
