We invite you to join us as we celebrate Epiphany by attending the 12th Night Festival, hosted by Christ Lutheran Church, in Allentown. A 40 year-old community tradition held annually around the 12th day after Christmas, the Twelfth Night Festival is a celebration of the Nativity. Traditionally there are twelve days of Christmas. Twelfth Night is the “door” between Christmas and Epiphany (January 6th), the Christian feast celebrating the arrival of the Wise Men. Coming from distant lands, the Wise Men exemplified the showing forth of the newborn King, the recognition that the Christ is for all peoples. Modeled on medieval pageants and feasts, the production includes hundreds of volunteer cast members from the congregation and the community, both in costume and behind the scenes. The Christ Church choir is accompanied by more than two dozen volunteer singers from other congregations and by a professional chamber orchestra. Local performers including the William Allen High School Dancers and the City of Bethlehem Bagpipe Band are part of the production. Tickets cost $10 per person (plus a $1 credit card fee if paying online). If you require transportation, West Lawn can take up to 25 guests from our parking lot using our bus and van. Others can carpool. Meet at West Lawn UMC at 11:30 AM on January 13 to carpool together. The show begins at 1:00 PM.
