Transforming lives with Good News in the Nation’s Capital
Nov 18, 2024
It’s getting closer! Our Live Nativity is right around the corner and will be here before we know it! Today Patty Bills will be picking up the newly created and elaborate costumes that Joseph and Mary, the three kings, and others will be wearing as we present the glorious message of our Savior’s incarnation — the Son of God emptying Himself and choosing to identify with us in our humanity.
Philippians 2:6-8 reveals the amazing way this transpired:
“Who, being in very nature a God,
did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross!”
The date is Thursday, Dec. 5, when we walk with the live animals on Capitol Hill ending at the U.S. Supreme Court, where there will be a brief presentation of the gospel.
There is much to be done in preparation and in the presentation. Perhaps you would be willing to assist in some way on Dec. 5. Please call Patty Bills at 202-737-1776 or email her at [email protected] with any questions you might have. Consider signing up to participate yourself or with a friend or with a group from your church. We thank you!

Pray for God’s protection and blessing over important upcoming activities, including our Live Nativity, the Bible distribution at the inauguration, and our pro-life memorial and reception.
Pray for a sufficient number of volunteers and churches to participate in our Live Nativity on Dec. 5. Pray for all permits to be in order, and thank the Lord for the sewing circle who have finished the new costumes!
Thank the Lord for our ongoing Bible studies and the fellowship and support that comes from these gatherings.
Pray that our Ministry Center would continue to serve as a home away from home for interns and congressional staffers, especially during the holidays.
Pray for the peace and security of our country, including during the inauguration. Pray for the outgoing and incoming administrations as end and start their terms, respectively.
