Salem Lutheran Church & School in Affton is once again sponsoring an all-youth community presentation of The Bethlehem Experience. Guests
will be led by Hannah as they enroll in the census and pay their taxes
to Caesar under the watchful eyes of the Roman guards. They will then
enter the city gates of Bethlehem and pass through the city center –
stopping to talk with the shop owners about an unusual rumor. The tour
culminates with news from the shepherds and finding Mary, Joseph and the
baby Jesus in the stable behind the Inn.
Tours are offered
continually on Saturday, December 14 from 6:00-8:00 p.m. and Sunday,
December 15 from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. in the Salem Gymnasium, located at
5025 Lakewood Dr., Affton 63123. Each tour takes approximately 25
minutes, but wait times vary. There is no entrance fee but donations
will be accepted. Please call the church office at (314) 352-4454 for
directions or more information.
