The 12 Ways of Christmas

What is the 12 Ways of Christmas all about?

At LifePoint, we're all about Loving God, Loving People and Leaving a Legacy and Christmas is the perfect time to go out into our community and make a lasting impact - a legacy!  That's why we're taking on the 12 Ways of Christmas!  We're embarking on 12 fun and impactful ways to change our community that span out over three months (December through February).  Why does it go past December?  That's a great question.  So many people are willing to step out and get involved at Christmastime - and the need is great, but we want to reach our community with the message that Jesus' love doesn't end on December 26th.  His love and provision are lasting - and that's why we're not stopping just because Christmas is over!

Who can get involved in the 12 Ways of Christmas?

You can! We want to engage every age group, every family type, everybody!  And we've planned the 12 Ways of Christmas with you in mind!  Each Way is created to be a project anyone can join in (with the exception of minors participating in the blood drive).

I want to share photos of what is going in the 12 Ways of Christmas!

Awesome!  We'd love to see your photos!  Just upload them to our gallery on Flickr.
