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.
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.
This week, Billy Graham celebrated his 94th birthday! Many visitors stopped by the Library to sign a special birthday banner. Those well-wishes will be shared with Mr. Graham at his home in Montreat, NC.
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.
This Saturday from 10 – 11 a.m., Bobby Richardson, former second baseman for the New York Yankees and World Series MVP, will be at the Library to sign copies of his new book Impact Player.
We have just unveiled a new exhibit at the Billy Graham Library called “Billy Graham: God’s Ambassador to World Leaders.” It showcases Billy Graham’s relationships with United States presidents, as well as other heads of state and world leaders.
On July 24, we invite you to bring your children to the Billy Graham Library for a special event. You’ll see author Kelly Chapman’s beloved characters from her books, Princess with a Purpose and A Warrior Prince for God, come to life through stage performances, interactive lessons, and more.
June 5 is a special day for The Billy Graham Library – it was five years ago that we opened our doors for the first time.
Tuesday, June 5, marks the fifth anniversary of the official public opening of the Library and its ministry in Charlotte, NC.

With school soon ending and Memorial Day coming up on Monday, we are nearing the official start of summer! As you make your plans for places to go and things to do, here are five reasons to include the Library in your schedule.
