KofC Council 14297 Hosts "Las Posadas"

Journey to the Inn is a simplified one-day  ceremony in the tradition of Las Posadas. Meaning  “the  inns” or “ the shelters”, the Las Posadas ceremonies are simple reenactments of the story of Christ’s birth initiated by 16th-century Spanish  Franciscan missionaries to touch  the  hearts of  the  Mexican  people. Traditionally  held  on  nine  consecutive  nights just  prior  to  Christmas,  the Las Posadas reenactments give  emphasis  to  Mary and Joseph’s search  for  shelter before Our Savior’s birth and teach our communities that Christmas is a holy day celebrating the birth of Christ.
