The children of St. Philip's in the Hills Episcopal Church will bring the Nativity to life on Christmas Eve, Saturday, between 4:30 and 5 p.m.
The tableau will include the usual cast of characters and feature the Holy Family: a mother, a father and a real live baby.
Children will also assume the roles of various animals important to the occasion. There will be real animals as well.
The Live Nativity Scene follows the church's 4 p.m. Christmas Eve Children's Service, which is a communion service designed for toddlers and preschoolers and their families.
The service includes the blessing of the baby Jesus. Attendees are invited to bring the baby Jesus from their home Nativity scene to be blessed during the service. All are welcome to attend.
St. Philip's is located at 4440 N. Campbell Ave., at East River Road. The office phone number is 299-6421.
