light-the-world-banner-lds-christmas-2016

The Church has prepared a Christmas initiative for 2016 to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Last weekend, the Church sent information to ward and stake leaders that may be used in planning Christmas gatherings and activities. This information may also be useful for families.

This year’s initiative is entitled #LIGHTtheWORLD. It focuses on celebrating and sharing the Light of Jesus Christ with others. The initiative begins Friday, November 25, 2016 and runs through Christmas Day.

Invite your friends to visit Mormon.org/christmas.

Pass-Along cards and posters are available for downloading and printing at mormon.org/download.

I invite you to use these resources with you family and friends to plan Christmas activities.
