Real life in Wilton nativity presented by church volunteers
In Wilton the annual nativity scene staged by Zion Lutheran Church runs three nights before Christmas. A live donkey named Jennie and borrowed sheep, cared for by Lutheran school children, add realism as members portray Mary Joseph shepherds and wise men. The event originated with the church Couples Club, now continued by Fellowship League and youth volunteers since the club disbanded in 1974.
