Rev. Charles Crespo, pastor of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Catholic Church, and Felicia Oliveri, parishioner, portray the Christmas story with Rev. Crespo as Joseph and Oliveri as the pregnant Mary, on Timmy the donkey outside the church on Christmas Eve.
"Joseph" asked passers-by if they knew of a place where he and Mary could stay for the evening, as she was ready to bear a child and there was "no room in the inn."
