The free event will take place from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm and is designed to encourage families to spend time together this Advent season learning about the place of Jesus birth and celebrating the true reason for the Christmas season. WPC will transform its Community Center, Harlan Hall into Bethlehem. Event activities include learning how to write Jesus name in Hebrew, grinding Frankincense and Myrrh, sampling bread and food from Jesus time and lots more. Visitors can have their picture taken with the Holy Family and be on the lookout for a King or two (or three) walking around bearing gifts.
Christmas readings and music will also be taking place across from Bethlehem (a.k.a. Harlan Hall) in the WPC Sanctuary. WPC has ample parking on the church grounds and visitors will be guided to the event by the Star of Bethlehem
