Entering its fourth decade as a Dawsonville tradition the Bethel Baptist Church’s living nativity took place during the evenings of Dec. 6-7. With twelve scenes and over 100 actors the yearly production takes the entire congregation along with help from family, friends and neighboring churches according to volunteer Gary Discharoon.
