As we wrap another year of Christmas at the Library, we are thanking God. Of those who visited during Christmas, more than 100 gave their lives to Christ! And, as it turns out, there were other new births at the Library this Christmas…
Now that the Christmas season is in full swing, we thought it would be a good time to share some interesting facts you might not know about Christmas at the Library.
Each year when Christmas at the Library ends, we begin preparing for the following year. So, to say we have been looking forward to this day for a long time is an understatement. As you look forward to celebrating this special time of year and perhaps joining us one evening at Christmas at the Library, here are a few things to help you prepare. These are especially handy tips for our friends who will join us for the first time.
At this annual event, ladies gathered together for an inspiring message by Kendra Graham on the faithfulness of God, our shepherd.
It’s almost here! Christmas at The Library begins on Dec. 1 and runs through Dec. 22. A number of things many of you have enjoyed in previous years will be available again this year, but there are some new things as well.
For Rosemary Moore, playing Mary in Christmas at the Library’s live nativity is tradition. As part of the Billy Graham Rapid Response Team, she and several co-workers use the volunteer opportunity for team building. It’s also a fun, unique way to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas. Rosemary’s favorite part is seeing children’s faces as they peek over the wood fence to spot baby Jesus or pet the animals.
