Kirkland and Redmond families will join together this Christmas season to share with their neighbors and friends one of their favorite Christmas traditions – the display of Nativity scenes (also known as Creches). The community Nativity display is hosted by the Kirkland Washington Stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The public is invited to view the display from 5-9 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 5, at the church’s Totem Lake Chapel, 13320 N.E. 132nd St.

In addition to the display of Nativity scenes, there will also be a 15-minute live nativity presentation (including donkey and sheep) starting at 5:30 p.m., 6 p.m., 6:30 p.m., and 8 p.m. in the parking lot. The 8 p.m. presentation will be in Spanish. There will also be a live Christmas music concert from 7-7:45 p.m. featuring choirs and soloists. Admission to the displays and concert is free of charge and people of all ages are welcome. Refreshments will be served.
