VIRTUAL – The Bethlehem Star
Location
AZ
Description
North Scottsdale United Methodist Church is hosting a stargazing opportunity to learn about “The Bethlehem Star.” The interactive presentation, by Stargazing for Everyone, will be held from 7-8 p.m. via the NSUMC Zoom Classroom.
Families that RSVP through the NSUMC Facebook or email will receive a list of stargazing apps, Christmas cookie recipes and the link to the Zoom event. Participants are invited to:
- Download a stargazing app prior to the event so participants can practice and interact with the app in their backyard during the event (or bring a telescope)
- Make a Christmas treat to sweeten this virtual backyard get together
- Bring a light (candle, flash light or glow stick)
Once families are virtually connected, the astronomy presentation will begin. It will include an introduction to stargazing and minor constellations, the presentation of the three scientific hypotheses on the Bethlehem Star and a closing song by the NSUMC Children’s & Youth choirs. Bring a light to the event so you can light up your own backyard while joining the children’s choirs in song. 480-948-0529 or nsumc.com
