Journey to Bethlehem

12/03/2024

In the spirit of Giving Tuesday we'd like to offer everyone an opportunity to help Journey to Bethlehem to find its new permanent home!

This Christmas season will be the first time in 23 years it has not been displayed for all to enjoy.

Please help us meet our goal.

Sadly, the tear down started today. It is about 1/3rd done. We will be there all day Friday and Saturday if you are interested in the process or behind the scenes.

If you want to view Journey to Bethlehem in downtown Logan for a final time, you have this weekend and next weekend to do so. It will start to be dismantled starting February 14. Sorry! It has been an honor to be able to provide the display for people to enjoy for over four years. We are actively looking for a new location but so far, have no real good leads.

Hello All! I have some sad news to share. The Journey to Bethlehem display will be dismantled in February due to the sale of the building. We have not yet located a new location. If you want to visit, you can view the display between now and mid February.

On this Giving Tuesday, would you please consider a donation to help keep Journey to Bethlehem available for public viewing? The owner of our current location for the last 3 years has put the building up for sale. He has asked us to be out by the end of January. We are actively seeking another location in the Hocking Hills area. Any donation would be of assistance. Thank you for your kind consideration!

A unique addition to the display is possibly going to happen. My husband is attempting to make the two of us into 5" tall figurines we can place in the display during the reset!
Stay Tuned and fingers crossed!🤞

We are making progress. The display reset is a little more than half done. It has been nice to talk to the many people who have stopped by during the reset process. We hope to have it completed by the middle of March.

Hello All! After 4 days of assembly, we are about 20% complete in re-setting the display. Whew!

Today was the start of the tear down for Journey to Bethlehem ! We got approximately half of it down. Tomorrow we will try to see how far we get.

Then the reset begins! A new layout and things to find!

02/08/2023

We will be resetting the display throughout February 2023. The current display has been in place since November 2019. It is time for a refresh. It is our hope to have the display completed by mid March.
