Las Posadas, a Mexican Christmas tradition, will return to Wilson College on Thursday, Dec. 6, beginning at the Brooks Science Complex. Free and open to the public, the event will run from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

Las Posadas is a re-enactment of the story of Christ’s birth, following the journey Joseph and Mary made from Nazareth to Bethlehem in search of a refuge where Mary could give birth to the baby Jesus. When they were unable to find lodging in Bethlehem, Joseph and Mary sought shelter in a stable, where Jesus was born.
