Las Posadas will continue to accent the Christmas Season in St. Charles. The date this year is December 7th.
We are back to a live procession on Main Street! We’d be delighted if you grab a candle and join us if you’d like! Participation serves as a good reminder that Jesus has come once, and He said He’s coming again! Maranatha!!
A non-denominational event sponsored by several St. Charles area churches, individuals, and community-minded organizations, the candle-lit procession moves slowly down ten blocks of South Main Street, lined with people who light the way for "Mary and Joseph" as they seek lodging at various establishments along the way. They finally “find shelter” at the Main Pavilion at Frontier Park, on the Missouri River. There will be readings of The Story, carols for all to sing, and lighting of a yule log, a tradition that began here in the mid-70s.
Please be sure to arrive early to find parking and arrive at the starting point prior to 6:30 pm. Keep in mind the Christmas Traditions activities are also in progress!! Thank you for joining us in this celebration!!
