Join us for a special day of joy, community, and giving back at Christmas in Bethlehem! This annual event, hosted by LifeSpring, Shady Spring First Baptist, and Daniels Missionary Baptist Churches in partnership with the Lunch Box food pantry, brings together families from across Raleigh Country for a festive celebration with gifts, activities, and encouragement for the winter season.

Christmas in Bethlehem is designed to provide support and encouragement for families in need while offering a fun, welcoming experience for children and adults alike. Each child who attends will receive a backpack filled with warm winter essentials, and families will receive a food box. We are also thrilled to offer family photos, interactive games, and holiday crafts for kids, hosted by our partner churches.

Highlights of the Event:

  • Backpack Giveaway: 120 backpacks packed with winter clothing and other kid friendly items.
  • Family Food Boxes: Each family will receive a box filled with groceries to support their holiday meals, provided by generous donations from our church congregations.
  • Games and Crafts: Kids can enjoy a range of fun activities and mess-free crafts, specially prepared by each church.
  • Hot Chocolate & Coffee Bar: Warm up with a hot drink, served throughout the event.
  • Prayer and Community Support: Our prayer team will be available to offer encouragement, and volunteers will assist families as needed with carrying supplies back to their cars.
  • Special Christmas Message: Join us as we share the true meaning of the season, presented by Shady Spring First Baptist Youth Pastor, Eddie Persinger.

We’re excited to welcome families for a day of connection, joy, and celebration! To reserve a spot, please Click Here to Complete the Registration Form by December 1st (limited to 120 children). Families must be present for the entire event to participate in the giveaways.
