The city of Bethlehem, constructed in the Zion Bethel Family Center gymnasium, comes alive with over 100 church members dressed and portraying Bethlehem citizens, including a tax collector demanding money, shop keepers selling their wares, beggars crying out for compassion, Roman guards, an innkeeper, and spinners. There will be musicians, perfumers, fish mongers, and a 12-foot tall synagogue. Over 30 market place booths may be visited before reaching the baby Jesus and his parents.
