Journey to Bethlehem
Experience the true story of Christmas and the excitement of our Savior’s birth in a spacious outdoor setting with dramatic actors, a live nativity and real animals. Unique to this event, is that you will actually walk with the Biblical characters along quiet wooded trails on the Journey. Along the way, you will receive items to assist you on your Journey.
