Journey to Bethlehem 2
Christmas Eve Pageant

Journey to Bethlehem

On Christmas Eve, children and youth will lead us on a Journey to Bethlehem at a 5:00 p.m. worship service. The children are not just performing but leading all of us in worship. Through their voices, actions, and hearts, they invite us to experience the wonder and awe of the Christmas story in a fresh way. As they guide us through the journey to the manger, they remind us that worship comes from a place of childlike faith, inviting us to encounter Christ anew and join them in celebrating the true meaning of Christmas. Children and youth can participate in the angel choir or in one of many pageant roles below.

Speaking roles and children's choir registration is closed. Non-speaking roles can still sign up here.
