Nativity animals...

Our church is located in a rural area, so farm animals are seen routinely. With Covid, our church had to adapt our Christmas Celebrations. We did so by having a Walk Through Christmas on our walking track. Seven stations were set up with live action and singing, telling the story of Christ's birth. It was very well attended by church and community folks. Most folks wore masks and socially distanced. It did rain a small amount but God provided everything we needed to give a witness for what He has done for us.
This little guy was a miniature cow provided by our animal "supplier".

I am sure the kids love the animals!

[Daisy Miller]

Good shot. Great idea to have a Walk Through Christmas this year.

A marvelous way to tell the story. I like this little guy. He looks a lot like a highland cattle - with the horns and the coloring.

[Corinne C]

He is so cute.

How wonderful! I’m so happy that the event went well. Our church is also using animals in this year’s celebration. They are going to have a drive-by live nativity. Great focus on this sweet little cow.

[Danette Thompson]

Sounds like an awesome service.

Wow, with real animals! Not something you get here in the city, but must be great to be a part of.

Celebrating the true meaning of the season despite the difficult times we are living through.

Wonderful story! Our Journey to the Manger got rained out this past Sunday, so we moved it to this coming Sunday. 🙏🙏🙏

Nice shot of what I would call a "puppy cow"
