'AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH AND DWELT AMONG US'

CONGREGATIONS ACROSS THE CITY will gather Saturday night and Sunday to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ nearly 2,000 years ago. That Bethlehem night represents for many the hope of eternal life and salvation through an infant child who grew to become a sacrificed Savior. These churches invite you to worship with them this Christmas. [for complete list of churches, see microfilm.] ILLUSTRATION: [color photo. Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus.]
