It’s just under a month until Christmas and I’m getting ready to journey on the Road to Bethlehem once again.
Travel back in time and take a journey through the streets to Jesus’ birthplace – Bethlehem. See a wise man discovering the prophecy of Jesus’ birth and enjoy the atmosphere of the marketplace. Discover the extravagance of Herod’s palace and the excitement of the shepherds as they are told of Jesus’ birth.
But watch out! Don’t get in the way of the soldiers or you may end up spending the night in prison. Be wary of the perfume salesmen in the marketplace – they won’t take “no” for an answer.
Admission is free, so take some time to enjoy the food available for purchase from the food stalls and the family entertainment in the Welcome Area.
There is plenty to do and see including Camel Rides, a Bouncy Castle, Joseph’s Workshop, Christian Bookshop, Health Assessments and much, much more!
The Road to Bethlehem 2016 will run for three nights, from the 12th to the 14th of December, at Livingston Seventh-day Adventist Church and Community Centre. It’s just opposite Livingston Market Place Shopping Centre in Canning Vale.
Our family visited the annual event for a number of years before I was invited to join the cast. This year I’ll be a wise man (no really, I will) and my son James will be a shepherd.
If you’re tired of all the usual hype at this time of year, come and revisit the true meaning of Christmas.
You can find out more or book a few tickets at the official Road to Bethlehem website.
