Experience the story of Christ’s birth in a Journey to Bethlehem at Southminster Presbyterian Church in Prairie Village. Join fellow travelers following the star through seven scenes in a dramatic walk-through that shares the story of the birth of Jesus. Tours start approximately every 20 minutes. While you wait for your tour to begin, enjoy music and storytelling in our sanctuary. This event is FREE to attend, it is our gift to the community.
