Live Nativity a tradition at church in Chester

Nearly 40 local children took to the stage at Community Presbyterian Church in Chester Sunday evening to re-enact the Christmas story for the church's 27th annual living Nativity.

"For me, it's been a nice way to enjoy Christmas for what it really is," said Lisa Burns, the director of family ministries at the church.

Burns said the nativity was performed solely by the middle school students years ago, but has more recently incorporated congregants of all ages. The younger children act out the Christmas story, while the older ones and a few adult congregants narrate.
