A Community-Wide Celebration Invites Residents to Experience the Beauty, Tradition, and Spirit of Christmas
Fourteen local churches will come together on December 11 from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. for the Second Annual Christmas Tour of Churches, a community-wide celebration designed to bring families, friends, and neighbors together in the spirit of the Christmas season.
The event invites participants to explore the history and traditions of each participating church while reflecting on the true meaning of Christmas and preparing their hearts for the birth of Jesus Christ.
New this year, participants will receive a Christmas Tour Passport, adding an interactive element to the holiday experience. As visitors travel from church to church, they can collect a stamp at each participating location.
Those who collect at least eight stamps will be entered into a drawing for a special door prize.
One of the unique features of the event is its flexibility: participants may begin their tour at any participating church and travel the route at their own pace. Passports will be available at each participating church, as well as at select local businesses along Front Street in advance of the event.
Organizers encourage residents to invite family and friends, plan their own tour route, and enjoy an evening celebrating faith, fellowship, and community.
With 14 churches joining together for one shared celebration, the Christmas Tour of Churches offers an opportunity to experience the season in a meaningful and memorable way.
One Community. One Christmas Celebration.
