Tis the Season ... Nativity

Fountain Green 1st & 2nd Ward Live Nativity 19 & 20th December 2008

This year the citizens of Fountain Green braved the snow storm and cold weather to share the spirit of Christmas. Tis the season to remember the birth of our Savior, our Lord Jesus Christ. This year we gathered at Mark & Ann Bailey's property where the small village of Bethlehem was re-created. Roman soldiers, tax collectors, inn keepers, market stores, Caesar Augustus on his throne and the representation of Joseph, Mary and the Christ Child. This was one of the best Nativities I've seen anywhere.
.
Along with a short video about the Savior, hot chocolate, cookies and refreshments were offered free to everyone. Warm fires and the warmth of friends made today and tomorrow an event not to be missed. Thanks to everyone who organized, made clothes, uniforms, cookies, set up the tent, lights, heat and props. Especially to those who stood in the cold snow and wind to remind us all of the reason for the season. THANKS!
