Journey through the Live Nativity
COSHOCTON – Journey back through time to The Live Nativity, Friday through Sunday, Dec. 6-8 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Coshocton Christian Tabernacle. This is the 22nd year members of the church have planed this as a free Christmas gift to the community.
Luminaries light the way as visitors drive through the live scenes depicting the birth of Christ, and other well-known events of His life. This 10 minute journey begins at the market place in Bethlehem where the dreaded tax collector awaits, the Inn which is full for the evening leads to the stable where Joseph, Mary, and the baby Jesus find rest. A host of heavenly angels alert the shepherds guarding their sheep with good news of Jesus’ birth, while the Wise Men worship the newborn Christ child. The journey is completed with scenes of the most told stories about Jesus…the carpenter’s shop, Jesus walking on water, a soldier praying at the cross and most importantly Jesus at the tomb.
More than 100 church members donate time, talent, animals, and costumes to bring the gift of the Christmas story alive to the community. Guests are encouraged to drive through more than once. Videotaping and photos are allowed; keeping in mind the flow of traffic must be maintained.
The Coshocton Christian Tabernacle is located at 23891 Airport Road (across from Wal-Mart). For more information, call 740-622-4133. Regular worship hours for CCT on Sundays are Sunday School at 9 a.m. and morning worship at 10 a.m. and Wednesday evenings at 6 p.m.
