We are delighted to announce that our parish has the honor of participating in this year’s Palo Alto Christmas Crèche Exhibit.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our parishioners — Dmitriy Filimonov, Guadalupe Gallegos, and Lyubov Filimonova — for their beautiful hand-painting of the Nativity figures in the Ukrainian style, which will represent our community at the exhibition.
This event gathers hundreds of contributors and thousands of visitors, showcasing Nativity scenes, artistic interpretations of the Birth of Christ, and family-friendly Christmas activities.
More details can be found on the website: christmascreche.org
What is the Christmas Crèche Exhibit?
A crèche is a three-dimensional artistic depiction of the Nativity — the Birth of Jesus — which traditionally carries profound religious and cultural significance.
Since 1987, the exhibit has brought together hundreds of volunteers and, to this day, welcomes thousands of visitors from dozens of cities across California and other states throughout the U.S.
May the light of Christmas shine in every heart. ✨
