Experience our petting zoo at 5:30 p.m., followed by the blessing of luminaries at 6 p.m. Members of our Saint Francis community will portray the Living Nativity. This event honors the Christmas creche tradition begun by St. Francis in 1223, which reenacts the birth of Christ. End the evening with complimentary cookies and hot cocoa at Achatz Hall of Science and John and Toni Murray Research Center. Purchase a luminary at saintfrancis.givingfuel.com/lights.
