Little Bethlehem

We found another new Christmas tradition in 2019. The First Baptist Church of Burnet has an interactive nativity of downtown Bethlehem. We drove out there early and stumbled on a Christmas activity in the town square.


I don't know where it came from, but they had snow that kids were playing in.


They were also raffling off bikes for kids of various sizes.


The line was reminiscent of the various lines at Disneyland, but it moved rather quickly. Once we were inside, it really felt like we were transported to a different time. There were Romans, tax collectors, people baking bread, others were weaving baskets. It was very impressive.


In the distance was the new star that marked the birth of Jesus Christ.


We followed it and eventually found Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus.


It was a really cool experience and I hope that it comes back for this Christmas.
