The Hope That Christmas Brings

December 19, 2020

Despite the COVID pandemic The Lights of Christmas presents: “A Drive-Thru Christmas” is shaping up to be one of the most successful Christmas seasons Warm Beach Camp has ever seen. Tickets are selling out, donuts are flying off the shelves, and the retail tent is running to keep up with the demand.

One Saturday night a volunteer named Ron was helping a guest at the end of the event. A man in his 60s pulled in and began asking Ron questions. He wanted to know about the Camp and why the Camp was putting on The Lights of Christmas.  Ron responded, “We wanted to give people hope!”

Upon hearing this the man wept.  He was the direct recipient of the hope we seek to communicate.

The numbers of cars pulling through the event are great! What is even better is the joy on the faces of children hanging their heads out of the car windows. Or, the families singing along to Christmas carols. Most importantly, the hope of Jesus Christ being spread to all who attend The Lights of Christmas presents: “A Drive-Thru Christmas.”

We look forward to continue to serve the community at The Lights of Christmas throughout the remainder of the season.

A Different Place for Different Needs
