have a live Nativity at Christmas time? I think it is one of the most Special things this time of year, and hearing the Children sing! Lifts one Spirit and makes you feel warm and not so alone !

No. There is nothing warm and fuzzy about Christmas. It is a pagan festival that was fused in with apostate Christianity in the fourth century CE.
It has absolutely nothing to do with the birth of Christ.
And most importantly it does not please Jehovah God that those who call themselves Christians would want to share in pagan festivities.
True Christians are warm and caring all year around.They look after their sick and single ones.They do not need an excuse,one day a year to show love and compassion.
I am talking about Jehovahs Witnesses.
Jesus said at John13:35:" By this, all will know that you are my disciples;if you have love among yourselves."

Nope. We have a small congregation, a lot of it the blue-haired crowd, and the special music reserved for Christmas makes it special enough for us.
I'm glad the live Nativity is special for you. To each their own.
Merry Christmas.

No but my friends church does a beautiful thing called the Tour of Bethlehem and you go and you get a name and you take a journey and robbers come and try to steal from you. You see the shepherds guarding their sheep and then you get to Jerusalem and with your coins you have trinkets to buy or a loaf of bread. We get the bread. Then there is Jesus Mary and Joseph then you go and the story of Jesus and the little drummer boy playing. It is free and cold and heart warming!

No, we have the traditional Yule tree, decorations, wreath, Yule log, lights and will exchange gifts as per our heathen traditions. Those brighten our days. 12 days of celebrating the Solstice, our deities, ancestors and family and friends warm our bodies and souls.

No, we have no live nativity. We have a Christmas play @ church.

Some parishes do but ours is very small and they use a small nativity set and play piped-in music.

Missy, I just want to get one thing straight. Thy Holy father is a sanctity among our American culture. Where do you think we received all this wealth and prosperity. Don't be such an ungrateful person and don't defy all that is Holy with such trivial questions as to who has a better religion.
