O Little Town of Bethlehem!

We spent three days in beautiful, 
historic Bethlehem, Pennsylvania this past week.
Katie and I have always marveled at the story 
of the Moravians... their faith and fearless spirit.
When we lived in Vermont, every December, 
several families would join us as we each created 
(in the Moravian tradition) our own Putz. 
This was an elaborate "creche scene" that
included numerous figures, houses and embellishments.
