Creche replica blessed during prayer service Downtown

PITTSBURGH — The only authorized replica of the Creche in St. Peter's Square is in Pittsburgh.

The Christian Leaders Fellowship blessed the larger-than-life nativity scene during a special prayer service Thursday outside the U.S. Steel Tower.

The dedication ceremony has become a Pittsburgh tradition.

Twenty life-size figures grace the Creche, including the infant Jesus, Mary and Joseph.

The Creche will be on display 24 hours a day through Jan. 7, 2018.
