There was a wonderful energy and also a sacred spirit throughout the evening. It was beautiful to watch parents engage with their children and families interact with other families. Felt like what you want church to be!" "Our families absolutely loved A Night in Bethlehem! We had close to 250 people join us! Our high school gym was truly transformed for the evening and we received lots of positive feedback." "They loved the craft activities with their children and the questions that brought about discussion. One comment from a parent was how much they liked that the event brought their faith into their everyday lives. Thank you for such a fun and effective event for our families."
