Live Nativity at OLQOP
Our Lady Queen of Peace Church presents the 34th annual Live Nativity on Saturday, Dec. 2 at 5:30 p.m. in the Upper Church. Cookies and hot cocoa to follow in the church hall.
We are putting the final touches on the 34th annual performance of the Live Nativity. All are welcome to celebrate the tradition of the crèche which was begun in 1223 by St Francis of Assisi in Grecio. Our year round liturgical musician, Ed Lecuyer, will lead the cast in a musical presentation and singalong.
This local traditional production features props and handmade costumes dating from the original performance in 1989 and an intergenerational cast! Additional props and costumes have been created over the years, and there are some that are new for 2023.
This is the 800th Anniversary of the tradition!
