Sunday, December 7 · 3 – 5 pm
Join GPMC for a family experience that explores life when Jesus was born. Visit various shopkeepers, like the carpentry shop and the painter’s hut. Try making bread at Bethlehem Bakery and visit the metal worker’s shop. Then head to the stable to hear the story of Jesus’ birth directly from Mary and Joseph.
Nursery care will be provided for children ages 2 and younger.
Cost: $5 per family – Event fee is accepted in cash at the door, or check/cash/credit card in advance.
Want to help?
We are looking for folks to dress up and be shopkeepers, other folks to be townspeople, and even a couple of people to be city guards. Sign up to volunteer here!
We are also looking for some items to borrow to transform GPMC into Bethlehem. If you have any of these items, please contact the Christian Education team.
- Canopy tents
- Fabric in “Bible” colors (white, cream, brown, tan, gray, etc. – can be solid or prints) that will be draped and stacked over tents and tables
- Large baskets, large pieces of sturdy pottery
- Fake plants
