Walk through Bethlehem is a FREE live, interactive event, set in the village of Bethlehem at the time of Jesus' birth.

About this event

You'll be immersed in the sights, sounds and smells of an ancient city, eventually making your way to the same discovery the shepherds made that first Christmas night—Jesus, the Savior, lying in a manger

What to expect:

Registration for 2022 will be online (starting October 1). The doors open for registration a little before 4pm. If you register for a tour scheduled later in the evening, we ask that you arrive at the church no later than 20 minutes before your estimated time slot. Sometimes we run a little ahead of schedule and this will ensure you don't miss your turn.

Those showing up in person not registered online will be fit into the first available spot.

You are also welcome to wait in the sanctuary for your tour to begin. We try to make this as comfortable as possible including toys and coloring materials for children.

Strollers are not allowed on the tours, so please plan on leaving them in the sanctuary.

When it's your group's turn, your number (given to you at the door) will appear on the screen at the front and back of the sanctuary and your guide will greet you at the door.

Once started, the tours take 35-40 minutes. Please coordinate bathroom stops before you begin as there are no facilities available until your tour is completed.

Please stay with your group and keep a close eye on your children during your tour. Bethlehem is a busy place and it's easy to get lost (plus, the Roman guards are very suspicious of foreigners)!

We look forward to seeing you in Bethlehem!
