The Wright Memorial Hospital Spiritual Wellness Team will be hosting the second annual Live Nativity on Thursday, November 29 from 5:30 – 7:30 p.m. The event will begin on the hospital’s walking trail and will end inside the hospital’s Education Center.
The live display will feature five simple scenes that illustrate the story of Christmas. Each scene will have live characters with two scenes featuring live animals. The five scenes will be spaced out along the walking trail, so some walking will be necessary. Christmas carolers will also be spaced along the trail. The entire walk around the trail should take between 15-20 minutes to complete.
“Last year, the Spiritual Wellness Team at Wright Memorial wanted to do something that demonstrated our organization’s faith-based heritage. The Live Nativity was a fun and successful event that allowed us to do that. We were very blessed by the community turnout, and we enjoyed visiting with all who came,” said Corey Wallace, Manager of Hospitality Services. “Part of Saint Luke’s mission is to enhance the spiritual health of the communities we serve. This is a great way to start the Christmas season and see the story of Jesus Christ’s birth retold in simplicity. We invite our community and employees to come out again and have a great time experiencing the story of the first Christmas.”
As attendees finish the live nativity route around the walking trail, they will be welcomed to warm up, visit, and enjoy refreshments in the hospital’s Education Room.
Parking for the event will be in the east parking lot and, if needed, the south parking lot. Signage will be posted, and parking attendants will help guide the traffic. Wright Memorial Hospital is located at 191 Iowa Blvd, in Trenton. For questions, or for information on how to help with the event, please call Corey Wallace at 660-358-5963.
