Mattawa churches come together to tell the Christmas story

MATTAWA — Almost two dozen Mattawa churches came together to tell the Christmas story in a Living Nativity pageant recently.  

Wahluke School District Superintendent Andy Harlow estimated the pageant drew 400 to 450 people. The WSD offered the use of its stage for the venue.  

This is the pageant’s second year. Last year two churches participated.  

“This year we had 20 (churches),” Harlow said.  

“What was nice was seeing people we don’t normally see, from all over the community,” he said. 

    A community choir was part of the recent Living Nativity pageant in Mattawa.
