Mary and Joseph in modern cell phone times 2023-12-26 - Metcalfe County, KY - Photo by Chris Lagermann. Chris writes, "Joseph (Lukas Lemmon) and Mary (Katherine Lemmon) at Breeding Church on December 17, 2023 participating in a "Live Nativity". (I was unable to ascertain who played Baby Jesus!) Bill and I decided that if Mary and Joseph have had cell phones they could have called ahead for reservations and avoided a night in the stable! Breeding Church hosted a free meal to the community that night too. The church is pastored by Brother Larry Lemmon." Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
