Many churches are hosting living live nativity scenes around Indy where the Christmas story is portrayed with actors and animals in an outdoor setting. Check out some of these spots around town where your family can experience a live nativity scene. St Mark's United Methodist Church Photo Credit: St. Mark's United Methodist Church St. Mark's will be hosting their Holy Walk Through Bethlehem with guided tours this Friday and Saturday, December 2 and 3 from 6:00 - 9:00pm. There is no cost, but they are accepting donations of canned foods for a local food pantry. Monetary donations are also being accepted; with proceeds being used to benefit the many different missions that St. Mark's supports. Be advised, this is a popular event and often will have a wait time. Guests remain inside of the church until it is time for their guided tour to begin. While you are there, be sure to try some of the delicious baked goods. Because the live nativity itself does take place outside, you will want to dress appropriately.
