Here is the nativity display in the sanctuary of our archdiocesan parish:
You can see the elephant that's brought the Magi on the right. Almost invisible to the left is a camel.
Here's a slightly better view of the elephant. Both photos were taken from a distance with a cell phone, and the elephant is a bit shaky.
In the procession for this evening's Christmas Vigil mass, our pastor will carry in the Christ child and place Him in the manger, in the center-left distance above.
There are many wonderful things we've seen in this parish that we've never experienced in any Episcopalian parish. Why try to settle for almost-as-good when better is close at hand?
