Waiting for Christmas day
I found this nativity scene in the Metropolitan Cathedral of Santiago. This Cathedral is our main church and is located in Santiago's Plaza de Armas (downtown main square). It's very nicely decorated and its construction began in 1745. An intersting fact is that this is actually the fifth church in the same spot and the third Cathedral (the two previous ones were destroyed by earthquakes)Happy Holidays to all of you!

Feliz Navidad!
"Noël est là,
Ce joyeux Noël, des cadeaux plein les bras,
Qui réchauffe nos coeurs et apporte la joie,
Jour des plus beaux souvenirs,
Plus beau jour de l'année."
Washington Irving

“Christmas is there,
This Merry Christmas, gifts full arms,
Who heats our hearts and brings the joy,
Day of the most beautiful memories,
More beautiful day of the year."
Washington Irving
MERRY CHRISTMAS OF EVRY
Edulabbe, happy holiday to you, too.

I don't think it can be said that we have a "main church" in Greenville. There are several large churches which significant history which I guess would come closest to what I would think of as a "main church". Now we even have "mega churches" which are less denominational and more community centers.
All the best and Merry Christmas.
Thanks for all your good wishes!
I hope you had a nice Christmas.
