Video of Mary & Joseph seeking shelter has Mary asking, "How much longer?" to Joseph.  The birth of baby Jesus is the crux of this holiday, Christmas. Celebrated with living nativities throughout the USA, in California there are dozens, if not hundreds of living nativities.

Most living nativities in Calif. are held in December. They are usually outdoor pageants or re-enactments of the Christmas story in which Mary and & Joseph seek shelter so she can give birth.  The events are produced by local church congregations and are filled with colorful costumes and talented members who donate their time to bring the stories to life for modern day audiences.

In Southern California, just 14 miles from where this nativity above was video captured is Garden Grove's Glory of Christmas. It is a spectacular display of costumes, live animals on stage and even flying angels. Those who see it say it is something you should see once, especially if you seek to bring meaning to your Christmas events and holiday. 

For annual dates for the event shown above, call (714) 536-2589.  Location: 1207 Main Street, Huntington Beach, CA 92648.  Time: Usually first week in December three nights from 6 to 9:30 p.m.
