Ways to Make Christmas More Meaningful
This Christmas season can be more meaningful than ever. We follow Jesus Christ. As his disciples, we celebrate His birth in gratitude for all He has done for us as our Savior. Here are a few ways you can magnify the Christmas spirit this year:
December 5-6 / Nativity & Noel: A Community Celebration of the Savior’s Birth
Dec 5-6, 7-9pm both evenings at 1255 Bell Road, Auburn CA. On Dec 5, enjoy a live silhouette nativity performance happening every 20 minutes and browse hundreds of nativities that are displayed in rooms throughout the church. On December 6, join us for a music concert featuring local choirs and music groups. The Salvation Army Angel Project will be there, welcoming donations of new coats for sizes infant to teen.

Now through January 1 / Light the World: The Giving Machine
At the Westfield Galleria Mall in Roseville! A Giving Machine is like a vending machine but for charity. Purchase an item just like you would a candy bar, but the item is something someone locally or around the world needs this Christmas season. Items include school supplies, pillow and bedding, bicycles, infant care kit, one week of food, job training, hygiene support, or a winter coat.
