My local church has actually held a church Christmas decorations display over the last few years which has become a fixture with families both from the congregation and those who do not attend this church or any other. Many families tour the town to look at the Christmas decorations that people put up on their houses and the local church Christmas decorations.
The church not only decorates the outside of the building but borrows decorations from parishioners and holds a display inside that people can come in and look at.
Coming inside to view the church Christmas decorations display is the first time many people have ever entered a church, and the members that man the display explain the meaning and significance of the church Christmas decorations to the Christmas story and message.
Church Christmas decorations are not just a beautiful way for church members to celebrate the Christmas season and the birth of Christ, but can also be a friendly and comfortable way share the Christmas story and message with people who are not familiar with it.
