Over 300 nativity sets on display at First Mennonite
Marty Hostetler created this manger scene applique on a batik background wall hanging, which is part of the First Mennonite Church "come to the nativity" exhibit.
Over 304 nativity sets from 40 members of the congregation are on exhibit in the church Fellowship Hall. Friday, Dec. 11, is the final day of the show.
The exhibit inlcudes nativity tree ornaments, nativity scenes, wall hangings and a wind chime and mobile. Nativity sets are from around the globe. Some were created by members of the congregation.
Donations to view the exhibit will be made to the Bluffton Community Assistance Program's food pantry.
