During the Christmas season, the Christian Church of the Community of Grace may not have a miracle in its annual “Journey to Bethlehem” programme, but it will certainly require a lot of help.

Tamara Holt, director of Journey to Bethlehem, said costumes could not be replaced. It is seeking donations of materials, money and manpower so that the show can continue. The stolen clothing has great emotional value and is expensive to produce. She says some costumes can be traced back to the early stages of production. After all, they only wore them for six nights. A season-if bad weather doesn’t allow “hiking” to be held, it’s less.

“some of us started the project, they died and they wore their clothes,” Holt said. Nobody wears them, but we still think they’re part of us. ” Some people are too old to attend, but they see others in their costumes, which means a lot. It makes them happy to see others wearing it.
