SEARCH FOR THE CHRIST CHILD
SEARCH FOR THE CHRIST CHILD
December 6 6 pm
This year, Search will be an online adventure!
Imagine the look of awe on a young child’s face as he sees Baby Jesus lying in his mother’s arms… the stirring in young parents’ hearts as they introduce their children to the true meaning of Christmas… hundreds of people coming together to experience the journey to Bethlehem live…
On December 6, Federated Church will present its sixth annual Search for the Christ Child, an interactive journey to Bethlehem, and celebrate the birth of Christ with the entire community. This year will be a little bit different, as we present a virtual version of the beloved event!
Visitors will be welcomed at the Camelback Inn where the census will be taken. Small groups will travel together led by Shepherd Guides who tell of the birth of the Son of God. On a journey back in time, travelers encounter angels, shepherds, and live animals during their search for the child. They seek help from wise men, stop at King Herod’s Palace and pass through a bustling marketplace. Ultimately, travelers arrive at the nativity. Here, in the stable, this tiny baby is the hope of the world.
Appropriate for all ages.
"I just want to thank all of you for putting this huge production together! My children loved everything about it! It really helped my 4 yr old to see and talk to actually people and learn about the journey Mary and Joseph went on."

"Thank you for inviting our family to be an active part of wonderful evening. The whole event was beyond enjoyable! From the greeters, to the JOY youth group passing out cocoa and cookies, to the walk through well acted out by GROUP and many others. This whole program was beautifully thought out and so visually creative. Great job. Many thanks, and many blessings."
