The 44th annual Nativity Pageant is a wonderful way to rediscover the joy of Christmas with your neighbors and friends. This outdoor production of “Come to the Light” was co-founded in 1963 by Jane (Putsie) Ritchey and the late Louise McMahon and Howard Lentner in the weeks following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.  Starring area children, local clergy, residents and live animals, the pageant is an endearing re-enactment of the Christmas story.

If you have angels (girls, grades 3-5), shepherds (boys, grades 3-5), wise men (boys, grades 6-8) or townspeople (all ages) who would like to participate, call Putsie Ritchey at 621-0980.
