How Far to Bethlehem Live Nativity

December 12, 13 & 14 • 7:00–9:00 PM

A Live Drive-Through Nativity Experience at Lithia Springs Methodist Church

We invite you to join us for one of our most beloved Christmas traditions—How Far to Bethlehem, a live drive-through nativity presented by Lithia Springs Methodist Church. Come experience the story of Christ’s birth brought to life through beautiful sets, costumed actors, and scenes that reflect the wonder of that holy night. Invite your family, neighbors, and community to drive through and rejoice in the hope of the season!

This event is only possible through the generosity and service of our church family and community. We warmly invite you to participate in this year’s nativity in any of the following roles:

Portray shepherds, angels, townspeople, the Holy Family, and more. No acting experience needed!

Set Up & Breakdown Teams

Help assemble the outdoor sets, lighting, signage, and staging areas—and help take them down at the end.


Volunteer Dinner
