Now in its 26th year, First Church of Coral Springs, invites residents to step back in time to Bethlehem Revisited, a living interactive recreation of the town of Bethlehem as it may have appeared 2,000 years ago.

Their historic recreation includes a walled city utilizing more than 30,500 square feet of lumber, an authentic marketplace where shop owners are eager to show their wares and demonstrate how they are made,  and visitors will also find shepherds, Roman soldiers, storytellers, and a living nativity.

“We hope that everyone who leaves the city is lifted up and given a sense of peace,”  said Senior Pastor Vance Rains.

Bethlehem Revisited begins Friday, December 7 through Tuesday, December 11. Visitors can enter the city between 7:00 p.m.  – 9:00 p.m.  on Friday, 6:00 p.m.  – 9:00 p.m.  on Saturday and Sunday, and 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. on Monday and Tuesday.

Bethlehem Revisited is appropriate for all ages and admission is free.

First Church is located at 8650 W Sample Road, Coral Springs (half a mile east of University Drive). For more information about Bethlehem Revisited, see www.bethlehem-revisited.com.
