Away in a Manger, living nativity takes shape at First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) Rockwall

Rockwall, TX (December 6, 2024) – If you look under the bright star in the East (east of Ridge Road, that is!) on December 15th, you will find Mary, Joseph, baby Jesus, and the entire cast from that Bethlehem night long ago.

For the 17th year, First Christian Church Rockwall will present its gift to the community by reenacting the Christmas story for the public. On Sunday evening, December 15th, a costumed cast of all ages will share the Christmas story at two performances, one at 5 pm and a second at 6 pm. Children can pet animals at the scene before each performance, and families can share hot chocolate and cookies following the performances.

The event is a cherished holiday tradition at FCC Rockwall. In bringing the community a free, family-friendly activity and a creative reminder of the reason for the season, members see the event as another way to serve as disciples of Christ.

First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) Rockwall is located at 3375 Ridge Road, 1.4 miles south of I-30. Enter from White Road and follow the signs to the parking areas.
