The 14th Annual Bethlehem Experience!  (Westlake Village)
Saturday from 5:00 – 8:30pm, and Sunday from 5:00 – 8:30 pm continuously.
Westminster Presbyterian Church, 2111 Watergate Road, Westlake Village

Drive Through the First Christmas Eve!
For two magical nights just before Christmas, Bethlehem comes to Westlake Village as the congregation of Westminster Presbyterian Church transforms their church grounds into The Bethlehem Experience – an amazingly lifelike recreation of the 1st century village.
Incredible sets, theatrical lighting, a wonderful collection of props, and over 100 members of the congregation in period costumes transport visitors back in time. There are live goats, sheep, chickens, a donkey and llamas plus the ambience of food cooking over real fire pits, a bustling marketplace, traditional Hebrew music and dance, and of course, the manger.
It’s inspirational, fascinating and free, so gather your neighbors, friends and family of all ages and plan to truly “experience” Christmas.
