Yardley Church To Host Interactive Christmas Event

YARDLEY, PA — A local church will be hosting an immersive Christmas experience on Friday, Dec. 24.

The event, titled 'A Night In Bethlehem', will give attendees the chance to feel like they ere in the town that Jesus Christ was born in at the time of the Nativity.

The family-friendly event will walk people through the town so long-time churchgoers, those new to church, and those who are just curious can see, feel, and hear what Bethlehem what like and to understand the significance of this town south of Jerusalem.

While attendees of all ages are welcome, the church wants this event to be a learning experience for children who are a part of the church and those who are coming for the first time. Interactive, immersive events like these help children to get a deeper understanding out of major historical and religious events like the Nativity.

"We want every kiddo to know what Christmas is really about," said Stephanie Hermesmeyer and Chantell Socha, Co-Directors of the Woodside Children’s Ministry. "Jesus is the most precious Gift that was ever given! That’s why we’ve been inspired to offer an exciting interactive experience to explore what happened on the very first Christmas."

The event starts at 2 p.m. at the church, which is located on 1667 Edgewood Road in Yardley. The event will last about 75 minutes, and worship services will be available before and after the event.
