Nativity of Our Lord | Lighting the Way

Welcome to Nativity!

We welcome guests and visitors and all those seeking a faith community. Whoever you are and wherever you’ve come from you are welcome here. From its founding in 1917 to today, Nativity is a great place to be, lighting the way to the future through faith, service, and prayer. The heart of our community is the Eucharist. Through the Eucharist, we are invited to a personal relationship with Jesus. To know Jesus is to love our neighbor. You will find Nativity to be a faith-filled, vibrant community; a people of varied backgrounds, ethnicity, and economic resource. All are welcome to join in the prayer and fellowship, to belong here now and for generations to come.

Beacons of Light

Beacons of Light is a multiyear process of pastoral planning for the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. Rooted in prayer, groupings of parishes will come together as one faith community. These new “Families of Parishes” will be stronger together, focused more on mission than on maintenance. In the Families of Parishes, we will grow closer to God, follow Jesus through the power of the Holy Spirit and radiate Christ in our lives.
