Anew king is born! Members of First Lutheran Church in Alexandria reminded residents of the true meaning of the Christmas season during its annual Living Nativity, held Saturday from 5 to 8 p.m. Shepherds, wise men, angels, Mary, Joseph, and of course, Baby Jesus, were all depicted in five live scenes that led visitors to the birth of Jesus on that first Christmas Day.
1/Shepherds watch their sheep while a star shines down announcing the birth of a king.
2/Merchants sell their wares at the Bethlehem marketplace.
3/Mary gazes adoringly upon her baby, wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger.
