The Uncut Coming of Christ
The 4,000-seat sanctuary at First Baptist Church of
Glenarden’s Worship Center will be completely transformed into the town of
Bethlehem for “The Uncut Coming of Christ,” an innovative Christmas production
in its fifth year.
This festive extravaganza, full of great singing and original
music, takes place Saturday, Dec. 21 (noon and 6 p.m.) and Sunday, Dec. 22
(6:30 p.m.) at 600 Watkins Park
Drive, Upper Marlboro, Md. Roughly 12,000 people attend this FREE event,
which quickly has became a family tradition full of life, humor and hope during
the holiday season.
Tasha Cobbs – who won 2013 Stellar Awards for Best
Gospel Performance and Best Contemporary Gospel/Urban Song (Break Every
Chain), as well as Best Contemporary Gospel/Urban Album (Grace) – plays the role of angel this year. Joseph is played by fellow gospel recording artist Isaac Carree (Clean This House) and Anaysha Figueroa-Cooper (Holy One) stars as
Mary.
