Greetings St. John XXIII Families!

Advent is fast approaching and Youth Ministries is beginning to prepare to present Journey to Bethlehem, once again. However, we can't put on this highly anticipated event without YOU! We are in need of actors and volunteers to help us complete the journey by filling the following roles:

Marketplace Shopkeepers (several families needed)

Shepherds (1 family needed)

Angels (several needed)

Innkeepers (2 couples needed)

Holy Family (1 couple with a baby needed)

Tribal Guides (several needed)

Journey to Bethlehem will be on Saturday, December 10th from 6:30 PM -8:30 PM. Set-up and rehearsal will be on Saturday, December 10th from 10am - 2pm. You are not required to attend rehearsal unless you'd like to personally set-up your area and run through your lines. Otherwise, you can just show up at 5:00 p.m. to select your costume (everything fits right over the clothes you arrive in), attend Mass, and then get into your position afterwards.

If you are interested in joining the fun and participating in this awesome event, please email Claire at [email protected] no later than Sunday, December 4th. Thank you for helping to make this year's event a success!

Sincerely in Christ,
Claire Parrulli-Lowther
