The Shepherdstown Chronicle reports on Trinity Episcopal Church's celebration of the 20th anniversary of its live nativity, founded by George Alwin in 2004. Initially inspired by a Christmas parade, the event has evolved significantly over the years with improvements in costumes, lighting, and advertising. Alwin emphasized the importance of maintaining high production quality, and new church pastor Rev. Gethin Wied noted the nativity's significance in the community. Participants expressed their commitment to keeping the spirit of Christmas alive through this cherished tradition.
