One Night in Bethlehem

Our church does One Night in Bethlehem every year and they open it up to the whole city of Midland. They take people through the town of Bethlehem, the marketplace, the stables and then eventually onto see the Holy family and baby Jesus. All of the kids wanted to be in it this year and they had so much fun doing it.

Here is the Census taker:
Our friends selling perfume in the Marketplace
J also sold in the marketplace. When we registered with the census taker, they gave us each 5 gold coins to "buy" something in the marketplace. They had food, perfume, blankets, trinkets etc.. J's job was selling food.

R and A were shepherds and even had speaking parts. They did such a great job!!
Meeting the Holy Family at the very end.

The shepherds - Aren't they just the cutest??? (A is the one in Green)
F was an angel and the most precious one at that. She just looked adorable.

Here is F doing her part. She is the dark haired one in the back row on the left side. :}
