New Hope Community Church Live Nativity

The reason for the season
By Lynda Wheatley | Nov. 26, 2021

Buried somewhere under the shopping receipts, wrapping paper, and gifts, there’s a reason for the season many Christmas celebrants believe is too often overlooked. New Hope Community Church is ready with a reminder: The Williamsburg church will host 45-minute outdoor tours along a wooded path, leading visitors to actors and live animals recreating elaborate scenes of the story of Christmas, from Creation to Bethlehem and beyond. Tours are scheduled for the evenings of Dec. 4 and 5 and Dec. 10-12, with special ALS tours Dec. 3 and 10. See newhope.cc for details.
