East Bay’s only live nativity will be held at Barrington Baptist Church at 25 Old County Road in Barrington, for two nights from 6 to 8 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, Dec. 13 and 14.
The carefully-staged production recreates the story of Jesus’s birth through hand-crafted venues, period-costumed actors, and live animals including sheep, an alpaca, and a foal.
The church will welcome guests on either night for identical events. Guests will be greeted by Roman guards taking the census and welcomed into a marketplace in Bethlehem. From there guests will travel to the shepherds’ field with angels proclaiming the birth. Everyone will have an opportunity to sit and reflect at the nearby manger scene before being welcomed inside to see the Three Wise Men approaching the holy family’s home.
Christmas revelers are invited to stay for warm refreshments, Christmas crafts and cookie decorating. Families and friends can snap their photo in the photo booth as a memento for the evening.
This family-friendly event is free. Details can be found at www.bbcri.org/christmas
