CAPE GIRARDEAU — The seventh annual “Nativities Around the World” event featuring more than 500 nativities is scheduled for Dec. 6-8 at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, located at 1048 W. Cape Rock Drive in Cape Girardeau.
This free community event is the only one of its kind in the area and a great way to kick off the Christmas season. It has become a seasonal tradition for many families.
The event will take place from 3-7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, Dec. 6-7, and from 3-6:30 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 8.
On Sunday, the display will be followed by a Special Christmas Devotional broadcast via satellite from Salt Lake City featuring The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square beginning at 7 p.m. All are invited to attend.
This year’s event will feature new personal collections from individuals in the community, adding their own unique flavor and variety to the display.
