Celebrating New Birth
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…
Emmanuel, God is With Us
You may recognize the word from the timeless Advent hymn, but do you really know what “Emmanuel” means?
From the Perspective of our Volunteers
As Christmas at the Library enters its final weekend, we are blessed to share with you the perspectives of some of our volunteers. Without them, Christmas at the Library wouldn’t be possible. It takes hundreds of volunteers to make this event happen, and to them, we all say “thank you.” If you haven’t been to see them in action, we hope you come out tonight or tomorrow night.

On a busy night in December, about 800 people will take a horse-drawn carriage ride around the Billy Graham Library. They take one of 10 Victorian-style carriages pulled by horses with names like Elvis, SpongeBob and James Brown.
“CHRISTmas hasn’t been lost”
