Pregnant Zookeeper Plays Joseph in Christmas Charity Event
13 Dec
Summary
- Farm staff and animals staged a Nativity play for charity.
- The event successfully raised nearly £2,000 for St Peter's Church.
- A pregnant zookeeper played Joseph due to her bond with the donkey.
A visitor farm in Cambridgeshire recently hosted an inventive Nativity play, featuring both staff and animals, to raise funds for a local church. The initiative aimed to highlight the traditional spirit of Christmas.
In a surprising turn, a five-month-pregnant zookeeper stepped into the role of Joseph, maintaining her connection with the donkey she had trained for the performance. Another colleague portrayed Mary, riding the animal to ensure a smooth and secure depiction.
Canon Fred Kilner of St Peter's Church expressed his delight, confirming the event generated close to £2,000. This substantial contribution will be instrumental in keeping the church building accessible to the community.
