Reason for the Season
Mary and Joseph, played by Leah Roberts and Jake Wallace, show excitement for the birth of Jesus during the Live Nativity sponsored by First United Methodist Church this past weekend. This year’s event featured a four-scene production showing the birth of Jesus, the angels’ announcement to the shepherds and the arrival of the the wise men, who followed the star. T&N Acres of Locust Fork provided all of the animals for the Nativity including the camel named Judy. This event also featured numerous nativity displays from church members and local residents, along with music from the church’s music department.
